HC Deb 12 June 1917 vol 94 cc754-5
14. Colonel YATE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether only officers who were commissioned subsequent to 5th August, 1914, are eligible to claim the benefits of the Civil Liabilities Com mission; and, if so, will he take steps to have this Regulation amended so as to include those officers who were commissioned prior to 5th August, 1914?

Mr. FORSTER

No, Sir; officers below the rank of major are eligible, irrespective of date of commission.
