Sir J. DAVIDSONasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what would be 1559W the financial effect of the abolition of the age limit imposed in the Pensions (Increase) Acts, 1920 and 1924?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLIn the absence of any knowledge of the extent to which the means limits would operate in these cases, it is impossible to form a precise estimate of the financial effect of the abolition of the age limit, but it is considered that the cost would probably be between £150,000 and £200,000 a year.
