HC Deb 19 December 1935 vol 307 c1960W
Mr. BUCHANAN

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that Mr. Diamond, of Herbertsun Street, Glasgow, is having his disability pension taken into account by the Unemployment Assistance Board; that this man has received a letter from the Ministry of Pensions which, in definite terms, states the pension is a disability one; and if he proposes taking any action in the matter?

Mr. E. BROWN

I understand that the hon. Member has now been informed by the Unemployment Assistance Board that, having regard to the special needs in this case, it is not proposed to take any part of the pension into account.
