HC Deb 18 July 1899 vol 74 c1168
CAPTAIN BOWLES

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War if he can see his way to give Volunteers serving in the factories under the War Office some pay during their attendance at their week's training, in the same manner as the Post Office and many private firms do.

* MR. WYNDHAM

As I informed the House on the 13th instant, this question has been considered, and it has been found impossible to permit absence without forfeiture of pay or equivalent overtime; but, with these reservations, every effort is made to facilitate attendance at drills and camps.
