§ Mr. E. Walkdenasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether disability pensions awarded for naval or other military service are disregarded in full or in part when old age pensions committees are assessing the income of applicants for non-contributory old age pensions.
§ Sir J. AndersonNo, Sir. The statutory provisions governing the calculation of means for the purpose of non-contributory old age pensions do not permit disability pensions to be left out of account.
