HC Deb 20 July 1896 vol 43 c121
MR. G. LAMBERT (Devon, South Molton)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether class firing in a Volunteer Corps would come under the category of military duty, and entitle a Volunteer to a claim of compensation from the War Department for injuries received while in the performance of his duties.

* THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. BRODRICK,) Surrey, Guildford

Class firing is a military duty, but the grant of compensation would entirely depend upon the circumstances of a case.
