HC Deb 08 December 1925 vol 189 c272W
Mr. RYE

asked the Minister of Pensions whether, in view of the fact that many ex-service men are, in consequence of disabilities contracted during the War, unable to effect life or accident policies, he will consider setting up an insurance scheme whereby, on payment of adequate premiums, such policies could be effected?

Lieut.-Colonel STANLEY

I would point out to my hon. Friend that the provision already made in the Royal Warrants for pension for widows and dependants is, in fact, the contribution made by the State towards the object, which my hon. Friend has in view.
