§ Mr. N. MACLEANasked the Minister of Pensions whether he has received several requests from Thomas Foley, No. 242032/6294, late Seaforth Highlanders, for commutation of his pension; whether each request has been met with a demand for his regimental particulars, which he has always supplied; and whether he is now prepared to consider the request?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONI regret that the application to commute cannot be granted and the man was so informed on the 8th February. I understand that he wishes to go abroad, and he has been told that an application for an advance of pension for that purpose will receive favourable consideration.
