Proceeding contribution from Andrew Murrison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Forces Widows' Pensions (Equality of Treatment) Bill.
Forces Widows' Pensions (Equality of Treatment) Bill
There has only been one year since 1939 in which our armed forces have not been engaged in some sort of conflict. Does the war award refer simply to awards that can be attributed to second world war service, or to subsequent conflicts? If so, which ones? Does the Minister mean "attributable" widows, or simply widows of servicemen who have been killed in conflict?
