HC Deb 19 February 1942 vol 377 cc1919-20W
Mr. McNeil

asked the Minister of Health whether he will discontinue the present practice of reducing a pensioner's supplementation because the pensioner has had a subsequent award from the War Service Grants Committee?

Mr. E. Brown

Arrangements have already been made between my right hon. Friend the Minister of Pensions and the Assistance Board whereby in future the award of a war service grant to a supplementary pensioner will not necessitate any adjustment of the supplementary pension.
