§ Mr. N. MACLEANasked the Minister of Pensions whether a service pension of 1s. 3d. per day for life, to take, effect from the 20th July, 1918, has been awarded to, Mr. William C. Clark, late No. 14,430, Scottish Rifles; whether he is aware that this man is at present on treatment and is in an advanced stage of tuberculosis; that this pension is being withheld from him; and whether he can slate the reason for this pension not being paid together with arrears?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONThis man has been receiving treatment allowances at the corporal's rate in lieu of both disablement and service pension, but as it now appears that it is more favourable to him to draw his service pension together with treatment allowances at the private's rate, instructions have been given for the payments to be adjusted from 84s. 10d. to 90s. 3d. per week.
