Mr. Scottasked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs to what extent there are reciprocal agreements between His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom and His Majesty's Governments in the Dominions whereby contributory 1030W pensions qualified for in the Dominions are payable in the United Kingdom should the recipient return to this country; and whether he will take all steps to extend such agreements?
§ Mr. Emrys-EvansThere are no such agreements at present and in the absence of schemes for contributory pensions in certain Dominions no reciprocal arrangements could be made. As regards the second part of the Question, the adoption of such schemes would be a matter for the Dominions themselves.
