§ COLONEL HUGHES (Woolwich)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, whether the Warrant for re-organising the Ordnance Store Corps will be published during the sitting of Parliament; and, whether the principle involved in the Warrant will be the creation of upper and lower classes of British officer, the upper class being given higher pensions than attainable regimentally, while the lower class will have to give five years' extra service without increase of retired pay?
§ MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMANNo decision has yet been arrived at with regard to a re-organisation of the 727 Ordnance Store Department; but the subject, which involves many issues, is under consideration.
