HC Deb 09 April 1913 vol 51 c1160
34. Colonel YATE

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will reconsider the question of extending the grant of increased allowances for the removal of furniture, etc., on change of quarters, now given to married quartermasters, to married officers holding similar rank to the quartermasters?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the WAR OFFICE (Mr. Harold Baker)

As I informed the hon. and gallant Gentleman on the 2nd instant, the matter has been fully considered, and I am not prepared to reopen the question at the present time.

Colonel YATE

Is there any reason why one class of lieutenant should have the allowance and not another?

Mr. H. BAKER

I will consult the Secretary of State about the matter.
