HC Deb 24 March 1896 vol 39 c44
MR. BROOKFIELD

, on behalf of Mr. ARNOLD-FORSTER (Belfast, W.): That the failure of successive Administrations to give employment in Civil Departments to Reserve or time-expired soldiers and sailors of good character is contrary to public policy and detrimental to the interests of the Service, and that this House calls upon Her Majesty's Government to make larger provision for the employment of such persons, by allotting to them preferentially such posts in the public service as they are competent to 61). [Tuesday, 21st April]

SIR EDWARD HILL (Bristol, S.)

gave notice of a similar motion for the same day.
