HC Deb 17 May 1916 vol 82 cc1543-4W
Mr. BOLAND

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he is aware that the local pensions committee has granted an old age pension of 5s. per week each to Michael Murphy and his wife Johanna Murphy, of Dromalohert, Glencar, county Kerry; can he state whether these claims have been specially investigated since his attention, was called to them; and what decision has been reached in the matter?

Mr. RUSSELL

No appeals have been received by the Local Government Board on any recent claims by these people. If appeals are received, an inspector will be sent as promised.
