The Acting Treasurer Mr Casey announced in the House of Representatives the Government will repeal all property clauses in the Pensions Act and remove relatives' contributions to pensioners' grants. The change could apply to 2000 to 3000 pensioners with an annual extra cost near £10,000. Legislation aims to pass quickly so changes take effect by month end, with pensions rising to 18 shillings by July 1 next year, though the 6d weekly rise will start with the 1935 36 financial year. The Lang party leader Mr Beasley criticised the pension clauses again.
