HC Deb 02 July 1917 vol 95 cc743-4
21. Colonel YATE

asked the Pensions Minister whether the new Royal Warrant for officers is now ready for issue?

Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWEN

I much regret that I can add nothing to the answers which I have recently given on this subject, but I should like to repeat the assurance which I have already given that neither officers nor nurses will suffer any financial disadvantage from the delay, as the new Warrant will operate from the 1st April.

Colonel YATE

Can my hon and gallant Friend give any idea when this Warrant will be introduced?

Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWEN

No, but I hope in a very short time
