asked the Minister for Local Government why an old age pension has been refused to William Kelly, of Ledford, Boyle.
WRITTEN ANSWER. - LEDFORD (ROSCOMMON) O.A.P. CLAIM.
The old age pension has heretofore been refused to this applicant on the ground of insufficient evidence that he had attained the age of 70 years.
An appeal is at present under consideration upon a recent claim from Mr. Kelly, but the case has not yet been decided. The appeal on this occasion also concerns age, and the claimant's solicitor has been asked for further evidence.
