SOCIAL SECURITY AND WAR PENSION
Sir.—l intend to apply for Social Security benefit. I am getting a war pension from the last war for the loss of two fingers, amounting to 12s 6d a week. Will any of the war pension be deducted from the Social Security benefit?— Yours, etc., INTERESTED. May 8. 1943. [An official of the Social Security and War Pensions Department said that assuming “Interested” has no other income the war disability pension of 12s 6d a week would not affect the grant of an age benefit.]
