COLONEL WYNDHAM - MURRAY () BathI hog to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether subalterns volunteering for, and selected from garrison artillery in England to serve with, batteries of Maxim-Nordenfeldts in South Africa, lose their armament pay by being so selected; whether the officers of siege artillery in South Africa receive armament pay; and whether, under the circumstances of the subalterns of garrison artillery having to provide an expensive outfit, the armament pay could be restored to them while so employed.
*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS (for Mr. WYNDHAM)All garrison artillery officers employed in the field in South Africa will receive armament pay.
