Vol. 148 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dependent's Allowance Application.

asked the Minister for Defence whether he has received an application for a dependent's allowance under the Army Pensions Act, 1953, from Miss Mary Hogan, 2 New Road, Thomondgate, Limerick, and, if so, if he will state (i) when it was received, (ii) the cause of the delay in dealing with it, and (iii) when a decision will be given.

An application for an allowance under Part II of the Army Pensions Act, 1953, was received on the 12th September, 1953, from Miss Mary Hogan, 2 New Road, Thomondgate, Limerick. Consideration of the case has been unavoidably prolonged owing to the nature and extent of the investigations necessary in order to determine whether the application comes within the terms of the Act.

While I cannot say when a decision will be given, I hope that it will be possible to do so in the near future.
