§ VISCOUNT VALENTIA (Oxford)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War why in Army Orders, Special, 18th March, 1908, no mention is made of rates of pay for quartermaster-sergeant, colour-sergeant, squadron sergeant-major, bugler, fifer, piper, or drummer; and whether it is to be understood that these noncommissioned officers and men are to receive pay as shown in page 7, leaflet No. 2, Service in the Territorial Force.
§ MR. HALDANEIf the noble Viscount will refer to Paragraph 25 of Part II. of the Army Order in question, he will find it clearly laid down that pay for the Territorial Force will be at the rates and under the conditions laid down in the pay warrant for corresponding ranks in the Regular Army except where other 756 wise stated. It was considered unnecessary to reprint all the rates of pay in Appendix IV.; typical ranks only being given. The pay will be as set forth in the leaflet.
