HC Deb 17 July 1882 vol 272 c701
MR. ROUND

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether an Adjutant of Volunteers can retire on a full pension of ten shillings a day after twenty-one years' service; or, is he compelled to serve on till he attains the age of fifty-five before he can claim the full pension?

MR. CHILDERS

No, Sir; he can only attain the full pension at the age of 55, if he has had 20—not 21—years' service.
