HC Deb 13 November 1940 vol 365 c1731W
Mr. E. Smith

asked the Minister of Pensions whether he will state the percentage of disability pension that has been paid to victims of the present war in respect of the following specific injuries: loss of sight, loss of one eye, total deafness, total loss of speech, severe facial disfigurement, amputations of leg at calf, region of knee or upper thigh, amputation of arms, left and right, through the fore-arm, region of elbow or six inches of shoulder?

Sir W. Womersley

Comparatively few awards of pension have yet been made by the Ministry and those actually in issue at the present time are of varying rates suited to the immediate condition of each case and so for the most part do not represent the ultimate pension that may be found proper.
