asked the Minister for Finance if he will increase the centenarians' allowance to a realistic figure.
: The centenarians' bounty was increased from £5 to £50 with effect from 1 August 1970 and I am not considering increasing it further at present. The bounty is essentially a gesture or token of recognition.
