HC Deb 02 May 1929 vol 227 cc1725-6W
Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in order to mitigate unemployment in dockyard towns, he will consider renewing the concession to allow established men, who choose to do so, to retire and take their accrued pensions to date?

Lieut.-Colonel HEADLAM

It is not possible under the Superannuation Acts to do as the hon. Member suggests, unless actual reductions are being made in the establishment.
