34. Mr. Levy (for Mr. Lewis)

asked the Secretary of State for War the total remuneration per annum, including all allowances, which is at the present time payable, respectively, to a Territorial officer and to a Regular officer who holds the appointment of adjutant to a Territorial unit, assuming that in both cases the officer in question is a married man with the rank of captain?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

A Territorial Army officer holding the appointment of adjutant to a Territorial unit at present receives a consolidated yearly allowance of £317 if commissioned before 26th October, 1925. and £294 if commissioned on or after 26th October, 1925. A Regular officer holding the same appointment receives his regulated Army emoluments which depend on his length of service, namely, £631, £677 and £759 for a married captain of 8, 11 and 14 years' service respectively. The rate to be paid, in future, to a Territorial Army officer who gives full-time service as adjutant is under revision.
