This section relates to the membership of certain organisations covered by the legislation providing pensions, gratuities and other allowances under the Military Service Pensions Act, 1934. The Act removed certain restrictions operating under the previous legislation and provided scope for veterans not previously qualified to apply for a certificate of military service. It provided for the establishment of a Referee and a four member Advisory Committee to assist him. Under them, local Brigade Committees gathered records in order to verify individual applications.
