§ Mr. BUCHANANasked the Minister of Pensions if he is aware that Mr. Martin, Noonhaburn Street, Glasgow, has been refused any increase of pension under the Warrants of 1921 and 1925 on the ground that he has not reached 60; that the man's birth lines show that he was 60 at least eight months ago; and, if, in view of this, he will reconsider the case and have the increase granted from the date the man reached 60?
§ Mr. F. O. ROBERTSA pensioner's age for the purpose of all awards of pension must be calculated according to the age declared by him on first enlistment into the Army, and it is not possible for me to make an exception, in the case of Mr. Martin Noon, to a regulation which is applicable not only to my Department but also to the Service Departments.
