§ SIR HENRY SELWIN-IBBETSONasked the Secretary of State for War, If his attention has been called to the present difference between the pay of Adjutants of the Yeomanry Cavalry, and of the same officers in the Volunteer Forces; and if he will consider the advisability of increasing their pay and allowances, with a view to rectify this inequality?
§ MR. CARDWELLMy attention has been directed to the difference between the pay of Adjutants of the Yeomanry Cavalry and of the same officers in the Volunteer Forces, and also to the amount of duty required from those officers respectively. The Cavalry Colonels now about to be appointed to the new Cavalry districts will be directed to report upon the pay and also upon the duties of the Adjutants of Yeomanry, in order that we may be able to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion on the subject.
