HC Deb 23 February 1931 vol 248 cc1784-5W
Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE

asked the Minister of Pensions whether the recent decision of the Ministry against the claim of Mr. Fred Brazil, of 90, Evesham Street, Redditch, for a pension due to service in the late War was arrived at after hearing medical evidence in person; and, if not, will the Ministry reopen the matter and allow the medical authorities concerned to give evidence?

Mr. F. O. ROBERTS

This case has been reopened as a result of representations to the War Pensions Committee, and is at present under consideration by that body. All the medical evidence produced in support of the application will certainly be most carefully considered, and if the man's medical advisers are able to supplement the evidence already given by them, I shall be glad to receive any additional information from them.

Forward to
