HC Deb 24 April 1967 vol 745 cc223-4W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Minister of Social Security if she will allow the retirement pension of Miss Sali Davies, of Llwyn Dewi, Cellan, near Lampeter, Cardiganshire, to be paid in full from the date of its maturity as Miss Davies has at all times been willing to supply the information lawfully required, in the Welsh language.

Miss Herbison

Decisions on claims for National Insurance benefit, including decisions on the question of the commencing date of payment, are made by the independent adjudicating authorities in accordance with the provisions of the National Insurance Acts and regulations, and I cannot intervene. Miss Davies has a right of appeal to the National Insurance Commissioner from the recent decision of the local appeal tribunal.
