HC Deb 21 February 1893 vol 9 cc43-4
MR. EDWARD H. BAYLEY (Camberwell, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the proposed modification of the regulation as to repayment of discharge-money when a soldier re-enlists, he will in the meantime exercise the power he possesses to suspend the regulation in the case of Susan Bennett, to enable her to receive a portion of the money she paid?

MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

I fear I can only refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave yesterday. I have no power under the Royal Warrant to sanction any refund of money, paid for discharge, on re-enlistment.
