§ Mr. Grovesasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he will make investigation into the circumstances attending the delay in granting the blind person's pension to George Dew, 17, Chandos Road, Stratford, E.?
§ Lieut.-Colonel ColvilleI understand that the delay in this case arose from the fact that the claimant was not registered as a blind person at the time he made his claim to pension. The necessary evidence as to his blindness has now been furnished and the claim will be submitted to the local Pension Committee for consideration at their next meeting.
