HC Deb 14 July 1922 vol 156 cc1610-1W
Mr. ALLEN PARKINSON

asked the Minister of Pensions if he will have immediate inquiries made into the case of Private Thomas J. Griffiths, No. 16,941, 7th South Lancashire Regiment, and residing in Garden Street, Wigan; that at his last medical board in Manchester, on 24th March, 1922, he was notified that his disability was assessed at 40 per cent., since which time he has not received any pension, although he has made inquiries at the local pension office; and will he authorise the payment of the pension to this man at once, as he is sorely in need, having a wife and four children dependent upon him?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I am inquiring into this case, and will communicate with my hon. Friend at an early date.
