HC Deb 11 February 1897 vol 46 cc183-4
MR. ARTHUR O'CONNOR (Donegal, E.)

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the limit imposed by the Treasury on the amount of the just equivalent under Article 978 xiii. of the Royal Warrant of the 18th June 1884 affected Engineer Officers of the regimental rank of Lieutenant Colonel; and, if so how many; and, if only one, what was his name?

*MR. POWELL-WILLIAMS

The limit referred to affected thirty-one regimental Lieutenant-Colonels of Royal Engineers.
