HC Deb 06 July 1916 vol 83 c1672
78. Sir J. SPEAR

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War if time-expired Territorials who re-engage for active service are entitled to a bounty payment, whether serving at Home or abroad, similar to that paid to men of the Regular Army; if so, when did the concession come in force; and what is the amount they are entitled to receive?

Mr. FORSTER

The answer to the first part of my hon. Friend's question is in the affirmative. As regards the second part, the concession came into force on the 20th June last, the date of the special Army Order, but it applies retrospectively. As regards the last part, the amount of the bounty is £15.
