HC Deb 08 March 1910 vol 14 cc1440-1W
Mr. J. P. FARRELL

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland on what grounds the pension is being withheld from Matthew Egan, of Longford pension district, whose age has now been established to the satisfaction of the local pension committee; and will he cause the same to be paid to him now?

The HON. MEMBER

further asked why the pension granted to James Kenny, of Rhyne, has been stopped; is he aware that this man is merely a cottier tenant without any means, and that he is nearly seventy-four years of age, but unable to produce actual evidence thereof; and will his case be further considered?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I regret that I have been unable to find any record of the cases referred to by the hon. Member.
