§ 57. Mr. PERKINSasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that officers appointed to depots as adjutants have, so far, received no additional pay; and, having regard to the fact that these officers have for months past been doing adjutants' work, will he see that they receive, as from the date of their appointment, the extra pay allowed to adjutants?
Mr. BAKERAdditional pay has been approved for acting adjutants of depots. When not already provided for in regulations this takes effect from the date of authorisation. For Infantry depots the date was 5th February.
