HC Deb 14 July 1859 vol 154 c1200
MR. LANIGAN

said, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War when the arrangement for improving the condition of Barrackmasters will be carried into effect?

MR. SIDNEY HERBERT

said, that the scheme, if carried out, would be for the benefit of barrackmasters. They would be divided into classes, and would be promoted from one to another. The whole subject had received great attention from his predecessor in office, and he would announce the decision of the Government in a few days.
