HC Deb 06 April 1900 vol 81 c1400
MR. STEADMAN (Tower Hamlets, Stepney)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, if the concessions granted to civil servants volunteering for the front in the way of granting them the difference between their pay and the cost of providing a substitute and handing it over to their dependent relatives at home, will also be extended to unmarried Army Reserve men called from the Postal service to rejoin their old regiments for active service.

THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. HANBURY,) Preston

The concession applies to the unmarried Army Reservists as well as to the Militia and Volunteers.
