HC Deb 07 April 1879 vol 245 c454
GENERAL SHUTE

asked, Whether the House was to understand that the widows of the officers killed in Zululand would be allowed the value of their late husbands' commissions in addition to their pensions?

COLONEL STANLEY

I think the answer I have already given the hon. and gallant Member must show clearly that the regulation is that the value of the commission stands in lieu of pension.
