HC Deb 03 November 1930 vol 244 cc500-1W
Captain CAZALET

asked the Minister of Pensions if he will consider recommending the appointment of a Royal Commission to study the various anomalies of the royal warrant governing the grants of pensions to the families of men who die' of injuries received in the defence of their country, particularly cases which are barred by the date of marriage or birth or by the seven years' rule?

Mr. F. O. ROBERTS

I see no reason to adopt the course suggested. Such difficulties as occur in the administration of War pensions, within the principles approved by Parliament, are being satisfactorily dealt with by administrative action.
