COLONEL NOLANI beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office what is the total cost of the pay and allowances of the officers commanding depôt centres?
§ * MR. BRODRICKThe cost of employing these officers, instead of giving them the retired pay to which they are entitled and receiving no service in return for it, is £10,950.
§ * MR. BRODRICKI can supply that information, but I thought the hon. and gallant Gentleman wished to know the extra cost.
