§ 27. Mr. J. Morganasked the Secretary of State for War whether lieutenants called up for duty from reserve commence their duties at the same rate of daily pay as those of similar rank who have been commissioned for some time; and what the daily rate of pay is?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaThe rates of pay for a lieutenant in a combatant arm of the Service are 13s. a day on appointment to that rank and 14s. 6d. a day after six years' full pay reckonable service. A lieutenant called up from the reserve would receive one or the other of these rates according as he had or had not six years' full pay reckonable service to his credit.
