HC Deb 01 July 1914 vol 64 cc340-1
15. Mr. JAMES HOGGE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he can state what is being done about the question of higher pensions for commissaires of the Indian Departments; and whether those pensions are likely soon to be brought into line with recent increases in similar service at Home for corresponding work?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for INDIA (Mr. Charles Roberts)

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given to the hon. Member for the Holderness Division of Yorkshire on the 29th June.

Mr. J. HOGGE

Is it not the case that the men at Home have £34 more pension than those men have, in addition to the fact that those men are away from Home?

Mr. C. ROBERTS

If the hon. Member will give me notice I will inquire and give him detailed facts.
