HC Deb 10 March 1919 vol 113 cc890-1
107. Mr. LAMBERT

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty if he can increase the war service gratuity to temporary naval officers?

Dr. MACNAMARA

I am glad to be able to inform my right hon. Friend that temporary naval officers will receive a war service gratuity on the same scale as that granted to temporary officers of the Army, namely, 124 days' pay for the first year of service, and 62 days' pay for each succeeding year or part of a year of service.
