Unfortunately in the time available, and without more information, it has not been possible to identify and retrieve the relevant records on the person in question. These would be required to establish the pension entitlements, if any. If the Deputy wishes to make contact directly with the Pensions Administration Section of my Department and provide further information such as an army number, rank on discharge and length of service the matter will be examined further.
