HC Deb 24 July 1925 vol 186 c2570W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Minister of Health whether, under the Widows', Orphans', and Old Ago Contributory Pensions Bill, a man who was insured under the National Health Insurance Act to 65 years of age, but who is now over 70 and in receipt of a reduced old age pension, will be entitled to the full old age pension of 10s. a week without the application of the means test?

Mr. NEVILLE CHAMBERLAIN

If, as I understand my Noble Friend, the man in question lapsed from insurance at 65, he will not be entitled under the Bill to the full old age pension under the Old Age Pension Acts.
