HC Deb 19 December 1946 vol 431 cc448-9W
Mr. Hale

asked the Minister of Pensions in how many cases pensions payable to parents in respect of the death on active service of a son or daughter have been diminished because of the payment of family allowance.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

Out of approximately 38,000 cases of pensions in payment to the parents of men and women who lost their lives through service in the recent war, pension has been reduced or withdrawn in less than 200 cases as a result of the payment of family allowances.
