Mr. A. T. DAVIESasked the Minister of Pensions the number of dependants' pensions that have been increased and altered since the introduction of the new needs scale?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONI regret that the figures asked for by my hon. Friend are not available, but I understand that while a certain number of pensions have been decreased, others have been increased since the new scheme, based on the recommendations of the Select. Committee on Pensions, has been in operation.
