Captain Pluģģeasked the Minister of Pensions what difference there is in respect of pensions and allowances between the treatment of soldiers in military hospitals and in mental institutions for disabilities which service has either caused or to which it has contributed.
§ Sir W. WomersleyThe pension and allowances granted to a soldier on discharge are not paid during a course of treatment for his pensionable disability either in a mental or a non-mental institution. In lieu thereof the treatment allowances laid down in Article 17 of the Royal Warrant of December, 1943, become payable in both types of cases.
