Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from War Pensions: Past and Present In the summer of 1917 we were invited to become members of a Pensions Appeal Tribunal, an independent body formed to hear and determine certain specified appleas from decisions made by the Officers of the Ministry of Pensions. When we took up these we had no special knowledge or experience of our system of War Pensions, nor had we studied the principles by which it was governed or the machinery by which it was carried out. We discovered that there was not in existence any one book dealing with the subject; and that, in order to understand the system of war Pensions which obtains to-day, it was necessary to make a very considerable historical research. We found that the modern Statues did not define the powers and duties of the Ministry or the rights of applicants. Army Pensions were dealt with under a Royal Warrant, Navy Pensions were dependent upon a Statute, whilst the affairs of widows and orphans were in the hands of a Statutory Committee.
