asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health whether he will state for what reason the recommendation of the local Old Age Pension Committee, awarding a pension at the maximum rate to Mrs. Mary Hammond, widow, Chapel Street, Borrisoleigh, has not been carried out; and whether he will give instructions to have her claim reconsidered.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - BORRISOLEIGH OLD AGE PENSION CASE.
This case has not been before me on appeal since 1924, when a pension of 8/- a week was allowed. I cannot intervene in old age pension cases not before me on appeal. I have, however, referred the matter to the Revenue Commissioners, who are making inquiries, and who may be in a position to reply to the Deputy at an early date.
