§ SIR HENRY HAVELOCKasked the Secretary of State for War, Why Brevet Majors are deprived of their brevet pay of two shillings a-day while serving as Adjutants of Militia and Volunteers, that brevet rank and pay being granted either for long service or for service in the field?
MR. GATHORNE HARDY,in reply, said, the pay in question had doubtless been taken away, but since then, he had had time to re-consider the matter, and he had recently decided that Adjutants of the class described, who had been appointed since February 2, 1871, should receive the pay, dating from April 1 this year.
