§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAasked the Home Secretary if the Government does not intend to improve the rates of pension to pre-war police pensioners, he will give special instructions that these men, who are living on less than the recognised weekly subsistence allowance, shall be given some opportunity of obtaining employment in the Government services, public museums, or elsewhere?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSSo far as regards their employment as police station cleaners, etc., pre-war pensioners are given preference wherever possible. I have no authority to give special instructions as to their employment in the other posts to which the hon. Member refers.
