DURHAM MENTAL HOSPITAL STAFF (SUPERANNUATION).

HC Deb 22 December 1938 vol 342 cc3121-2W

Mr. Batey

asked the Minister of Health what is the amount of superannuation contributions which, under the existing scheme, a member of the female staff of the Durham County Mental Hospital is entitled to have refunded on marriage?

Mr. Elliot

Under the Asylum Officers' Superannuation Act, 1909, which applies to all mental hospitals, the visiting committee may repay to any female officer or servant leaving to be married after not less than three years' service, the amount of the contributions paid by her to them under the Act.
