Section deals with the special provisions as to additional allowances and Orphans'
Pensions, and in certain cases the Orphan's Pension payable in respect of a child
would in the interest of the child be administered by the local authority or some
other person for the benefit of the child, where a representation is made to the
Minister by the local authority, or otherwise.
