HC Deb 17 February 1930 vol 235 c956W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Pensions if he will inquire into the circumstances attending the continued refusal of recognition to Mr. W. Wilkins, 22, Francis Street, Stratford, 11/M/152,024; and whether, as this man is a permanent invalid, he will arrange a further examination?

Mr. F. O. ROBERTS

This case was carefully reviewed in October last and the circumstances explained to my hon. Friend. The ailment giving rise to the present condition of disablement could not, in view of its nature, be certified to be connected with service, and, moreover, the evidence pointed definitely to postwar origin. The man was medically examined last year, and I am advised that a further examination would not be of any assistance.
