HC Deb 22 February 1994 vol 238 c125W
Mr. Wallace

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will give details of the newspapers and broadcasting advertisement campaigns undertaken by his Department in the last 10 years to make service men and former service personnel aware of their discharge rights to a war disablement pension.

Mr. Hague

None. There is no need for such publicity when arrangements exist for service men and women to receive full information about the war pensions scheme on their discharge from service. In addition, those invalided from service are automatically considered for a pension without having to claim.
