§ Mr. Rhys Daviesasked the Minister of Pensions whether he can state the number of war pensioners who have responded to his suggestion for a deduction from their pensions for providing for their old age?
§ Mr. RamsbothamI am glad to say that up to and including 30th January the number of pensioners who had found it to their advantage to avail themselves of the scheme was 7,358. Fresh applications are continually being received.
