HC Deb 29 July 1919 vol 118 cc1949-50W
Sir T. BRAMSDON

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty if he is aware that established men now in receipt of pension are not being paid at supplementary pension agreed to by the Treasury in their recent Order: and whether the supplementary pension will be the maximum as stated in the Order?

Dr. MACNAMARA

Steps are being taken to revise the pensions in accordance with the terms of the Order to which my hon. Friend refers. The work involved is very considerable, but every effort is being made to hasten the revision. Each man will receive the maximum supplementary pension for which he is eligible there under, with arrears from the date of retirement.
