§ Mr. LANSBURYasked the Minister of Pensions if he is aware that a man, or, in the case of a lunatic, his friends, cannot be satisfied that the balance of probability is against the man, having regard to the fact that the decisions of the Pensions Appeal Tribunal are given without any reasons being assigned; and will he see that the reasons showing that the balance of probability is against the man are given in every case, and that such reasons are supplied to the appellants in all cases that have already been tried by the tribunal?
Colonel GIBBSWhere it is desirable or expedient to do so, the appellant is informed by the tribunal of the reasons for their decisions. The question whether this can or should be done in every case is, and must remain, a matter for the discretion of the tribunal itself.
