HC Deb 27 July 1922 vol 157 c694W
Captain LOSEBY

asked the Minister of Pensions if the widow of a deceased soldier who dies seven years after receipt of his wound or pension is disentitled to pension even although it can be clearly shown that the previously pensionable wound was the immediate or proximate cause of death?

Mr. MACPHERSON

The answer is in the negative. These widows can be considered for an award of pension under Article 17 of the Royal Warrant.
