HC Deb 03 March 1915 vol 70 cc773-4
4. Lord CHARLES BERESFORD

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether engineer-lieutenants under the old scheme receive only 11s. a day, while lieutenants (E) under the new scheme receive 11s. a day and an additional 4s. a day specialisation pay; and, if so, whether he will take steps to redress this inequality?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative as regards the initial rates only. It is not proposed to alter the existing scales.
