asked the Minister of Health when the regulations under the Old Age and Widows' Pensions Act are to be published; and whether he will consider the advisability of issuing a leaflet explaining in simple language the general effect of the Act and the regulations and the rights of pensioners there under?

I hope to lay these regulations before the House in the latter part of this month. As I have stated in reply to previous Questions, explanatory leaflets will be available to the public in good time before supplementary pensions begin to be payable.
