HC Deb 06 May 1915 vol 71 c1258
61. Mr. JOYNSON-HICKS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War if any civilian doctors are employed by the Army at salaries of upwards of £3,000 per annum; if so, who are they and what are they paid; and how many civilian doctors are receiving rates of pay higher than doctors of corresponding rank in the Royal Army Medical Corps?

Mr. TENNANT

There are no civilian doctors receiving higher rates of pay than officers of corresponding rank in the Royal Army Medical Corps and Army Medical Service.

Commander BELLAIRS

Will not inconvenience arise from the fact that the Admiralty are paying four times as much as the Army?

Mr. DEPUTY-SPEAKER

I would remind the hon. Member that this is not the time for argument.
