HC Deb 31 May 1927 vol 207 cc225-6W
Major COHEN

asked the Minister of Pensions the number of officials and subordinate staff engaged upon the administration of pensions of pre-War pensioners of the fighting forces, and widows and dependants; and the total cost annually of the work involved as apart from the annual cost of the pensions?

Major TRYON

There are 19 officers who devote the whole of their time and a number of officers who give only a part (and mostly a small part) of their time to the work in question. The estimated total cost annually of this staff is £4,200.
