asked the Minister for Defence if he will state when a decision will be conveyed to Mr. M. Leigh, The Cross, Ballitore, County Kildare (Ref. No. 45002), in respect of his application for a military service pension.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Military Service Pension.
The referee has not yet reported to me on Mr. Matthew Leigh's application under the Military Service Pensions Act, 1934. I am not, therefore, in a position to state when a decision is likely to be conveyed to Mr. Leigh.
Could the Minister say whether he expects to have the report soon?
The applicant was orally examined and the evidence which the referee now has is being followed up.
