HC Deb 26 October 1916 vol 86 cc1333-4W
Mr. KELLY

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether it is the intention of the Government to increase the pensions of Irish retired national teachers in view of the fact that the majority of such pensions do not afford at present the necessary minimum of subsistence?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

This question is one in the first instance for the consideration of the Irish Government.
