HC Deb 26 February 1917 vol 90 c1705W

Mr. P. WHITE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether, having regard to the increased cost of the necessaries of life, he will recommend the doubling of all pensions not in excess of 1s. per day to retired veterans who served in the Army and are now over 60 years of age?

Mr. FORSTER

No, Sir. I am afraid I cannot do so.
