15. Mr. PALMERasked the Secretary of State for War and Air if he will state who is responsible for the non-payment on 31st March of the annual proportion of bounty due to men who re-enlisted for two, three, or four years; and when will the payment be made?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONPaymasters have been instructed to credit the second instalment of the bounty referred to when it becomes due to soldiers' accounts, and notify Officers Commanding in order that payment may be made. If the hon. Member will let me have the names of any soldiers who have not been paid, I will have enquiries made.
