HC Deb 08 November 1920 vol 134 c890W
Sir M. DOCKRELL

asked the Postmaster-General when it is expected that the Pensions (Increase) Act, 1920, will be applied to the pensions of retired Post Office officials; and when it is likely that the arrears due from 1st April, 1920, will be paid to them?

Mr. ILLINGWORTH

I hope that the adjustment of these pensions, with the payment of arrears, will be completed by the end of this month. There may, of course, be a few cases, presenting special features, which will take a little longer to settle.
