asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health whether he will state the reasons for refusing to pay an old age pension of 6/- per week to Annie Moran, Claregate Street, Kildare (No. in Pension Officers' Register, 2509, appeal No. L.E. 368); whether as claimant in appearance looks to be seventy-five years old and is almost blind, he will reconsider the case with a view to the awarding of a pension.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - KILDARE OLD AGE PENSION CLAIM.
Mr. HOGAN (replying)
An appeal in this case on the ground of unsatisfactory evidence of age was received on the 19th instant against the decision of the Naas South Pension Sub-Committee granting an old age pension of 6/- per week. Further inquiries are being made concerning it, and on their completion a decision on the appeal will be given.
