§ Mr. WILLISONasked the Minister of Pensions whether he is aware that a large number of ex-service men are aggrieved at the decisions arrived at in their appeals to the Pension Appeal Tribunal, in view of the fact that in their respective cases they can produce the evidence of two or more medical men and other witnesses to substantiate the justice of their claims; and will he consider the advisability of taking powers to enable a fresh investigation into their cases to take place if substantial proof is forwarded?
Mr. MUIRIt has not been possible to arrive at a final decision since this matter was raised last Thursday by the hon. Member for Walthamstow, Wrest, but the whole question is receiving my right, hon. Friend's close attention, and he hopes to be in a position to make an announcement within a few weeks.
