Lieut.-Colonel THORNEasked the Pensions Minister if he can state the number of war pensions committees and old age pensions committees that have passed a resolution in favour of the abolition of the two committees mentioned; and if he is in a position to state what action he is taking in the matter?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANSI can only trace the receipt of two resolutions on this question. Both were opposed to the suggested abolition.
