§ Mr. Carter-Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if there has been a review of the position 604W of war widow pensioners; if any new proposals are envisaged by his Department; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. NewtonWhilst the position of war widow pensioners has not been the subject of any special review, their position is continually kept under consideration. As a result, last November, for example, we made substantial real improvements in the age allowances payable with war widows' pensions.
