HC Deb 29 April 1952 vol 499 c63W
63. Mr. Marlowe

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that soldiers of the Regular Forces whose period of service expired just prior to the operation of the new scales of pension and retired pay now find themselves at a considerable disadvantage as compared with those enjoying the new rates; and whether he will introduce legislation to ensure that all time-expired soldiers of identical rank and length of service receive the same pension.

Mr. Head

I would refer my hon. and learned Friend to the replies given by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister to Questions on this subject on 20th and 21st November last year.
