§ Mr. CAIRNSasked the Secretary to the Treasury if he is aware that there are many people in want over sixty years who can no longer work; and will he bring in a Bill to give £l at sixty years of age to meet such cases?
§ Mr. BALDWINIt is not proposed to introduce legislation to amend the Old Age Pensions Acts until the Report of the Committee which is inquiring into the matter has been received and considered.
Mr. ALFRED T. DAVIESasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer at what figure he estimates the difference in the cost to the country of reducing the old age pension from seventy to sixty-five, and in cases of incapacity to sixty years?
§ Mr. BALDWINThe data for framing an estimate such as the hon. Member asks for are so uncertain that no reliable figure could be given.
