§ Mr. MYERSasked the Secretary of State for India whether pre-War pensioners of the Indian Army are not participating in the benefits of the Pensions (Increase) Act; and, if so, the reason for the delay in this matter?
§ Mr. MONTAGUThe provisions of the Pensions (Increase) Act, 1920, do not apply to pensioners of the Government of India, who are paid from Indian revenues; but the question whether these should be granted similar increases to their pensions is having my most careful consideration in communication with that Government.
