HC Deb 05 August 1902 vol 112 cc670-1
MR. J. P. FARRELL (Longford, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War will he explain why the pay of Private Bernard Durkan, of the 6th Battalion, Rifle Brigade, was refused, although he had served his training period at the Curragh; and will he direct that this man's arrears of pay be remitted to him.

LORD STANLEY

Will the hon. Member kindly address any communication he may like to make on this matter to the general officer commanding the district.

MR. J. P. FARRELL

Can the noble Lord give me a guarantee that the general officer commanding the district will pay any attention to my request?

LORD STANLEY

I am certain that he will.
