§ MR. SWIFT MACNEILLI beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War 269 Office will he explain why, when all officers of the Reserve rejoining under Paragraph 488, Clause C, of the Royal Pay Warrant (whether ordered on active service or otherwise), have been granted an outfit allowance of £100 to cover the expense of providing themselves with the necessary uniform, exception has alone been made in the case of officers of the Royal Army Medical Corps, and will he say whether the word officer, used in Part I. of the Royal Warrant, includes medical as well as officers of any other corps.
