§ 68. Mr. G. M. Thomsonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what representations he has had from the Civil Service Pensioners Alliance (Scotland Branch); and what answer he has made.
Mr. AmoryI have seen copies of a resolution recently adopted by this organisation demanding compensation for the decline in the value of civil service pensions due to past inflation. I am sending the hon. Member a copy of a letter which explains why I do not consider such special treatment to be justified.
