HC Deb 07 July 1919 vol 117 c1422W
Sir HERBERT NIELD

asked the Pensions Minister whether, in any future amendments of the Royal Warrant, he will amend Warrant 24 (2) by enlarging the definition of the word "child" so as to include all children of men of His Majesty's forces whose fathers die as the result of injuries received during the War or whose death is directly attributable to war service, irrespective of whether the children are born before or after their demobilisation or discharge?

Sir JAMES CRAIG

My right hon. Friend will consider this question, but before coming to a decision on it he will, no doubt, prefer to await the Report of the Select Committee on Pensions.
