§ CAPTAIN NORTON () Newington, W.I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, if non-commissioned officers of Volunteers are permitted to retire with their rank and to wear their uniform on retirement after ten years service, he will consider the advisability of granting a similar privilege to officers of command rank in the Volunteer force on completing ten years service.
§ MR. BRODRICKNo, Sir. There is no reason why Volunteer officers should be treated differently to other officers in this respect.
