HC Deb 05 July 1910 vol 18 c1599W
Mr. LEWIS HASLAM

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can state the approximate number of persons in Germany of seventy years of age and over who are in receipt of invalidity pensions, and the approximate number under seventy years of age in receipt of such pensions, and the number of persons of seventy years of age and over who are in receipt of old age pensions?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The latest figures in my possession relate to 1908, when there were 852,824 persons in receipt of invalidity pensions, and 112,096 persons in receipt of old age pensions. Those in the latter category are all of seventy years of age and over. As regards the former, I have no figures to show what proportions are over and under seventy years of age, respectively.
