Oral Answers to Questions — Naval and Military Pensions and Grants. – in the House of Commons am ar 1 Awst 1922.
asked the Minister of Pensions whether he is aware that ex-Private S. Dennerley, No. 33,926, who is disabled and on a 30 per cent. pension, has been under treatment in the Royal Eye Hospital, Manchester, and had a piece of shrapnel removed, since when he has been before the local pensions committee and sent to a medical board at Bolton, but has since been informed that the pensions authority require a report from the doctor at the hospital, for which a charge of £3 3s. is made; and, as this disabled soldier is out of work, will he see that the report of the doctor concerned is obtained, and ensure that Dennerley gets fair consideration?
I am glad to be able to inform my hon. Friend that the case referred to has now been satisfactorily settled in the claimant's favour.
