HC Deb 22 July 1965 vol 716 cc269-70W

Mr. McBride

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether it is proposed to establish an office of the Land Registry at Swansea.

pension of £100. Figures are not available on this basis for the years 1940–1948, since the increase awarded under the Pensions (Increase) Acts of 1944 and 1947 depended on the element of war bonus included in the basic pension, which in turn depended on the salary on which the pension was based.

Mr. James Griffiths
