CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - MILITARY SERVICE PENSIONS.

asked the Minister for Defence whether John J. O'Connor, Droun, Glenbeigh, Co. Kerry, is the person described as John O'Connor, Kerry, in the list of persons supplied as being in receipt of pensions under the Military Service Pensions Act, 1924; and, if so, whether the Minister will state the services rendered by this man to entitle him to a Military Service Certificate.

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative.

The Board of Assessors reported to me that he rendered services as required by the Military Service Pensions Act, 1924.

asked the Minister for Defence if he will state the names of the officers who for the purposes of the Military Service Pensions Act, 1924, held the ranks of Colonel and Major-General and who are in receipt of pensions under that Act; and, further, to state in each case (a) the annual pension awarded, and (b) the period of service on which the pension was calculated.

As my reply is a long tabular statement, I will, with the Deputy's permission include it in the Official Report and send him a typewritten copy.

Following is the reply:
