HC Deb 02 June 1921 vol 142 c1270W
Sir B. FALLE

asked the Minister of Labour when the Workmen's Compensation Bill is to be brought forward; if he is aware that all pensioners under the present Act find it very difficult to live on the compensation granted; and if the Bill will be retrospective?

Mr. SHORTT

My right hon. Friend has asked me to reply. I would refer the hon. and gallant Baronet to the answers given to the questions on this subject asked by the hon. Member for the Normanton Division (Mr. F. Hall) on the 17th February and 5th May last. I regret I am not in a position to make any further statement.
