HC Deb 24 June 1920 vol 130 c2405W
Colonel NEWMAN

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that pre-War pensioners of the Colonial Service have had their pensions increased; and why no increase of pensions has been granted to pre-War officer pensioners of the fighting services whose cases present equal hardship and whose services to the State have been at least equally meritorious?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

I can only refer the hon. and gallant Member to the statement made by my right hon. Friend the Leader of the House on 10th May last.
