HC Deb 18 July 1950 vol 477 cc157-8W
90. Mr. Maclean

asked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the rise in the cost of living, he will consider introducing legislation to provide that, where a person in receipt of a superannuation allowance under the Asylums Officers' Superannuation Act, 1909, obtains any office of employment remunerated out of money provided by Parliament or certain other public bodies, he shall receive such of the superannuation allowance as, together with the remuneration of the new employment, is equal to the current rate of salary of the employment in respect of which the superannuation allowance was awarded, instead of to the rate of salary which obtained at the time of his retirement.

Mr. Blenkinsop

This condition in the Asylums Officers' Superannuation Act. 1909, is similar to that in other public service schemes. I see no reason to consider the introduction of legislation to vary it.
