88. Brigadier Clarkeasked the Minister of National Insurance whether he will consider raising the 10s. non-contributory widows' pension, in view of the rise in the cost of living during the past six years.
§ Mr. PeakeI assume that my hon. and gallant Friend has in mind the 10s. pension payable to certain widows whose husbands were insured under the repealed contributory pensions Acts. I would refer him to the reply given on 27th October to the hon. Member for Oldham, West (Mr. Hale).
