HC Deb 12 August 1901 vol 99 c422
DR. THOMPSON (Monaghan, N.)

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office if he will consider the advisability of abolishing the compound titles of retired Army medical officers.

*LORD STANLEY

This question has been very carefully considered, and it was not held advisable to abolish the compound titles except in the case of retired officers who were recalled or re-employed.
