Comment on this
A repeat claim to old age non-contributory pension made by the person concerned in August 1981 was investigated by the social welfare officer on 8 September 1981. He referred the claim for decision to the local pension committee on 11 September 1981 with a recommendation that no pension be awarded, on the ground that the claimant's means, consisting of the weekly value of capital and a holding, exceeded the statutory limit. If the claimant is dissatisfied with the committee's decision, he will of course have the right to appeal against it.
