HC Deb 25 October 1920 vol 133 cc1352-3W
Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

asked the Minister of Pensions who are the four representatives of ex-service men on the Staffordshire county pensions committee; and whether they all saw service overseas during the War and served in the ranks or non-commissioned ranks?

Major TRYON

There are at present only two ex-service representatives on the Staffordshire Local War Pensions Committee. Two other ex-service men, whose names have been suggested by the National Federation of Discharged and Demobilised Sailors and Soldiers, and the Comrades of the Great War, respectively, will be considered for appointment by the County Council at their next meeting. All of these persons have served in the ranks and three have served overseas.
