§ Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLEasked the Minister of Pensions if he can state the reply given to the Parliamentary representations made to him on behalf of the British Legion for the total abandonment of the seven years' limit?
§ Mr. F. O. ROBERTSI received in May last certain representations on this subject from a committee of the Parliamentary Branch of the British Legion. To these representations, which were not, as the hon. Member supposes, in support of the "total abandonment of the seven years' limit" but for an extension of it, I have given a reasoned reply. This, with my concurrence, is being published, and the hon. Member will doubtless be able to obtain a copy in due course.
