HC Deb 11 March 1902 vol 104 cc1012-3
MR. GRIFFITH BOSCAWEN (Kent, Tonbridge)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he can state if the extra 6d. a day will be given during embodiment to Militiamen of two years or more service.

LORD STANLEY

The extra 6d. is intended to encourage mea to extend their service, in order to maintain a constant supply of drafts to the regiments abroad. This argument would hardly apply to the Militia, even when embodied.

MR. ARTHUR LEE

Is it intended to give the extra 2d. a day to the Militia?

LORD STANLEY

I should not like to answer that Question without notice.
