HC Deb 01 April 1901 vol 92 c335
MR. THOMAS DEWAR (Tower Hamlets, St. George's)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the fact that the officers of the City Imperial Volunteers have been permitted to retain their Army rank, the same privilege will be allowed to Imperial Yeomanry Officers.

LORD STANLEY

Yes, Sir; they will have the same honorary rank.
