CEISTEANNA.—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - CLAIM AGAINST ARMY.

SEAN O LAIDHIN

asked the Minister for Defence whether he is aware that the wound pension granted to William Greene, Castlemaine Street, Athlone, amounting to £1 0s. 9d. per week, has been stopped; that the claimant's arm is powerless, owing to bullet wounds in the wrist, which prevents him from occupying any position; and whether, as the claimant has a wife and two children, payment of arrears of pension will be expedited.

Payment of Mr. Greene's pension was suspended in connection with the sentence passed on him at the District Court, Athlone, in April last. It has now been decided to issue the arrears due and to continue the pension.
