HC Deb 14 February 1924 vol 169 c1030W
Mr. LIVINGSTONE

asked the, Minister of Pensions whether, in view of the failure of the crops in the Western Isles, he will take steps immediately to revise all pensions in which the income from a croft was taken into consideration?

Mr. ROBERTS

The pensions to which the hon. Member refers are no doubt those based on pecuniary need. If need for any reason increases during the currency of such an award, the pensioner has a right of application for reconsideration, through the local area office, where all necessary information can be obtained. I shall, of course, be glad to have any individual case carefully and sympathetically investigated if the hon. Member will give me particulars.
