HC Deb 24 November 1954 vol 533 cc126-7W
62. Mr. D. Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies why Mr. John Knight, of St. Georges, Grenada, who retired from a post with the Legislative Council of Grenada some seven or eight months ago, has not yet had his superannuation payments settled; and whether he is aware that this man and his family are suffering financial hardship in consequence.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

I understand that Mr. Knight has now received £1,266 on account of his gratuity, and has been offered an allowance of £20 a month pending the final settlement of his pension, which is dependent on the formal approval of the other Windward Islands Administrations. This is now awaited.
