HC Deb 30 October 1930 vol 244 c220W
Major COHEN

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been drawn to the case of Mr. P. Culleton, of 10, Heol Dyfed, Fishguard, formerly. No. 7663, private, Royal Irish Regiment, who was pensioned in 1909 for debility following enteric and whose pension has now been increased to £31 1s. per annum; and whether he will arrange for this pre-War pensioner to receive pension and treatment at the same rate and under the same conditions as Great War pensioners

Mr. SANDERS

Mr. Culleton is receiving the appropriate award of pension under the regulations in force when he served, together with the maximum increase payable under the Pensions Increase Warrants. As his disability was not due to war service, I regret that I have no power to deal with him under the conditions which apply to war pensioners.
