§ Mr. KELLYasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether he is now in a position to state the amounts which will be handed over to the pension committees and sub-committees under paragraph 25 of the scheme for allowances to old age pensioners to defray expenses; and can he 39W give an assurance that the scale will be fixed on the same basis as that of claims and questions, in view of the fact that the work involved will be at least as difficult and complex?
Mr. McKINNON WOODInstructions with reference to the remuneration of the clerks to these committees are now in course of being dispatched, and I will furnish the hon. Member with a copy.
