§ 72. Mr. Boardmanasked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance whether, in the mutual interests of many of those in receipt of retirement pensions and employers, he will consider amending the permitted earnings of pensioners from £2 weekly to £104 annually.
§ Mr. PeakeNo. Any such change would require legislation and I am not satisfied that it would be practicable to depart from the weekly basis of earnings adjustment provided by the 1946 Act.
