§ Mr. HAYDAYasked the Minister of Pensions whether the parent or dependent of a deceased ex-service man who is a widow with several young children and has to stay at home to attend to household duties is eligible for a pecuniary-need pension?
§ Major TRYONThe grant of a need pension to a parent or dependant is conditional on the existence of personal incapacity for self-support on the part of the claimant. If the hon. Member has any particular case in mind of the type indicated in the question, I should be glad if he would let me have particulars.
