§ Sir S. Reedasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is the practice for retired members of the Civil Service, who are in receipt of pensions, to draw the full pay and allowances attached to offices to which they may be subsequently appointed, in addition to such pensions?
§ Sir J. SimonNo, Sir. Under Section 20 of the Superannuation Act, 1834. a pensioned civil servant who is reemployed in an office in a public Department may only draw so much pension, if any, as, when added to the salary of his new office, will not exceed the salary of his old office.
