Pre-War Disability Pensions

12.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE
asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether he is now in a position to make any statement concerning the scales of the pre-War disability pensioners?

Commander EYRES-MONSELL
The details of these new scales have now been settled and they will be promulgated almost immediately.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE
Can the hon. and gallant Gentleman give me the exact date when the statement will be issued, because he will remember that I have asked this question over and over again for the last 12 months?

Commander EYRES-MONSELL
I said "almost immediately." I will let my hon. Friend have a copy as soon as I can.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE
Thank you very much. You will understand my anxiety.
