HC Deb 20 May 1919 vol 116 cc219-20W
Lieut.-Colonel ARCHER-SHEE

asked the Pensions Minister whether he is aware that Sergeant C. Westbrook, late 1st Royal Garrison Regiment, has been awarded a service pension of Is. 1½d. per day only, on the ground that his service as a full corporal fell short by five days of the period required by the Regulations, and whether, in view of the fact that this ex-non-commissioned officer has had to his credit five years' service in the Royal Navy, he will consider a reassessment of the pension to make allowance for that fact?

Mr. FORSTER

I am having inquiries made into this case, and will inform my hon. and gallant Friend of the result.
