HC Deb 06 July 1905 vol 148 cc1311-2
MR. BENN (Devonport)

To ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether, in view of the Treasury Minute which grants part payment to Civil servants for leave taken for the purpose of attending certain Volunteer camps when held for the extended period of a fortnight, he will give a like privilege to those Civil servants who attend camps of one week's duration; and, further, whether he will so arrange that leave taken for the purpose of attending such camps shall not be included in the fortnight's leave now allowed.

(Answered by Mr. Victor Cavendish.) I am unable to recommend any extension of the privileges already enjoyed by Civil servants attending Volunteer camps.
