§ MR. DALY (Monaghan, S.)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he can state what is the salary of the new Commander-in-Chief Lord Roberts, and whether it is larger than the salary paid to Lord Wolseley, the late Commander-in-Chief; if so, can he say the reason of such increase?
§ MR. BRODRICKThe salary of the new Commander-in-Chief is £5,000. It is £500 more than that of the late Commander-in-Chief, as it was considered desirable to make provision for house allowance.
