§ 14. Mr. BENNETT-GOLDNEYasked what are the usual hours of duty of the military police; whether the military police receive, with the addition of their Army pay, a larger or smaller wage per hour than the members of the Metropolitan or county constabularies for carrying out similar duties; if larger how much 758 larger, and if smaller how little less; if he can say what the average pay per hour a non-commissioned officer carrying out military police duties receives in each rank; and whether members of the military police are in receipt of any of the extra benefits enjoyed by members of the civil police force, such as extra pay for good conduct and one day's rest in seven?
§ Colonel SEELYThe usual hours of duty are five hours patrol (and stable duty in addition) for the military mounted police and six hours patrol for the military foot police. As regards their wages it would be impracticable to institute any proper comparison between the emoluments and benefits of the military and civil police.
