HC Deb 03 December 1919 vol 122 c418W
Mr. JELLETT

asked the Pensions Minister whether, on the ground of the increased cost of living, a war bonus of 20 per cent. was granted for the year 1919 on all pensions given for wounds and disabilities resulting from active service; and, if so, on what grounds has it now been decided to discontinue such bonus and at the same time to increase the war bonus in the Civil Service?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

I must refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to the hon. and gallant Member for the Epping Division of Essex on the 17th ultimo, of which I am sending him a copy.
