HC Deb 30 October 1911 vol 30 c670W
Mr. DAWES

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether, in calculating the means of applicants for old age pensions, the total value of the furniture owned by them, when such value exceeds £50, is to be taken into account, or only the excess of value over £50?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

In calculating the means of applicants for old age pensions, the total value of furniture owned by them, if such value exceeds £50, is taken into account, and not merely the excess of value over £50.
