§ COLONEL PRYCE-JONES (Montgomery Boroughs)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether, in order to ensure a better attendance at parades and in camps of Volunteers in the future, he will consider the desirability of offering bounties somewhat as follows—namely, 10s. bounty to every man who attends camp for the whole week in addition to the daily rates of pay; 2s. 6d. additional bounty to every man attending five drills over the minimum towards efficiency (recruits not included) thus: fourteen drills minimum for efficiency, with bounties of 2s. 6d. for twenty drills; 5s. for twenty-five drills: 7s. 6d. for thirty drills; and 10s. for thirty-five drills.
* MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMSIt is not considered expedient to introduce the system of bounties into the Volunteer force.
