HC Deb 07 March 1898 vol 54 c848
MR. H. E. KEARLEY (Devonport)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty, whether similar concessions with regard to pay and deductions will be accorded to the Royal Marines as to the Army?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE ADMIRALTY

The pay of the Marines will be considered, but the hon. Gentleman is aware that, in many respects, the emoluments of the Marine differ from those of the soldier.
