HC Deb 01 December 1884 vol 294 c359
MR. O'KELLY

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, When Mr. Clifford Lloyd took office in Egypt; what was his salary at his first engagement; whether his salary was increased during his stay in Egypt; for what reason the increase, if any, was made; and, whether it was clearly understood when Mr. Clifford Lloyd left Egypt that he was leaving for good?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

Mr. Clifford Lloyd was appointed Inspector General of Reforms in Egypt on the 15thof September, 1883, with a salary at the rate of £2,000 (Egyptian) a-year. It was increased to £2,500 (Egyptian), as he was afterwards given the Executive Office of Under Secretary for the Home Department, which added greatly to his duties and responsibilities. It had not been officially decided when Mr. Clifford Lloyd left Egypt that he was leaving for good.
