I am not questioning the very proper concern felt by hon. Members on both sides of the House for the older section of the population. The reply to which I referred the House was perfectly clear, that I had no proposals to bring forward at the moment, and in saying that I am bound to remind the hon. Gentleman, as I reminded his hon. Friend, that the provision for which we are now responsible is, however it may be criticised, better than that for which his Government were responsible.
