§ In answer to a Question from Mr. CARNEGIE,
LORD HENRY LENNOXsaid, he was not surprised, knowing the great interest that existed out-of-doors on the subject of the pay and position of the Army Chaplains, that the hon. Gentleman should have put this Question to him. He was, however, unable to add anything to the answer he gave about a fortnight ago to the hon. Member for Windsor (Mr. Eykyn), namely, that in pursuance of a pledge given by the First Lord of the Admiralty, that the pay and position of the Naval Chaplains should he considered by the Board, they had come to the unanimous conclusion that the Navy Chaplains should be placed on an equality with the Army Chaplains. Owing however, to financial difficulties, the amount had not appeared in this year's Estimates, but he hoped that before long justice would be done to the Navy Chaplains.
