HC Deb 01 July 1943 vol 390 c1809W
Mr. Tinker

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has considered the resolution from Tyldesley District Council asking for an increase in the standard rate of 10s. a week of old age pension to meet the increased cost of living and what reply he has made thereto?

Sir K. Wood

As my hon. Friend is no doubt aware, this matter is now under examination in connection with the Beveridge Report.
