HC Deb 03 May 1875 vol 223 c1957
MR. HAYTER

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether he has yet come to any decision as to the formation of a department of Army Accountants, or whether the numerous vacancies at present existing among Regimental Paymasters are likely to be soon filled up?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY

, in reply, said, that he did not altogether agree with the Report of the Committee upon Army Accountants, and was of opinion that it was better no action upon the subject referred to by the hon. Member should be taken until the Commission now engaged in inquiry had reported.
