HC Deb 05 August 1947 vol 441 c134W
65. Sir P. Macdonald

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware of the grievance of retired prison officers as to the inadequacy of their retired pay following recent increases in the cost of living; and what action he intends taking about it.

Mr. Dalton

These officers, like other civil servants, are eligible for increases of pension under the Pensions (Increase) Acts, 1944 and 1947.
