HC Deb 12 July 1877 vol 235 c1176
DR. WARD

asked the Secretary of State for War, If he will offer the same terms of retirement to all the Army Medical Officers as have been offered to those now joining?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY,

in reply, said, he could not offer the same terms of retirement to all the Army medical officers as had been offered to those now joining, for the reason that the different sets of officers had entered the Service on wholly different conditions.
