§ 36. Sir J. BOYTONasked the Undersecretary of State for War if the Army Council will award annually the gratuity due to Territorial and Reserve medical officers, instead of at the end of the War, as in the case of temporary medical officers, so that the immediate financial position of these officers will be relieved and at no additional cost to the country?
§ Mr. FORSTERI am afraid I cannot adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.
