§ LORD J. JOICEY-CECIL (Lincolnshire, Stamford)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he can see his way to authorising the payment of the same allowances for railway travelling, etc., to the officers of a disbanded battalion of Militia, who attended the parade for handing over the colours to the Lord-Lieutenant, as they would have received on joining their battalion for annual training and dismissal from training.
§ MR. HALDANEThe same regulated expenses within the county as are granted 493 to the escort for the colours of a Regular unit under Paragraph 1769 of the King's Regulations will be allowed for a similar escort for handing over the colours of a disbanded Militia unit.
