§ Sir B. FALLEasked the Secretary of State for War whether a soldier who enlisted in December, 1882, was discharged on termination of engagement in December, 1894, re-enlisted in April, 1900, and serves during the Boer War, and was discharged with a life pension in April, 1909, with a qualifying pensionable service of over 19 years, who volunteered, re-enlisted, and served during the Great War from August, 1914, until February, 1919, and who gave satisfactory paid military service during the Great War, will have his pension re-assessed on the improved scale of pension laid down in Army Order 325/1919 according to his service on original discharge to pension?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGT0N-EVANSA soldier whose service was as stated in this question would not be entitled to pension on the scale laid down in Army Order 325/1919. Owing to the interval of more than five years between his first and second periods of service, none of the service given prior to hiss discharge in 1894 reckons for pension under post-War rules, and his remaining service is not sufficient to entitle him to any award.
