Old Age Pensions.

HC Deb 28 March 1917 vol 92 c454W

Mr. KELLY

asked on what ground an old age pension was refused to Eliza Doherty, of Cloughfin, Ballindrait (Stra-bane, No. 2), in view of the fact that the claimant satisfied the local committee that she was over seventy years of age?

Mr. DUKE

The claim of Eliza Doherty, of Cloughfin, was disallowed on the ground that there was no evidence to show that the claimant was seventy years of age.
