§ Captain WARINGasked whether, with reference to Circular Memorandum No. 308, a quartermaster at present serving in the Territorial Force will be required to give up his civil occupation and devote his whole time to his military duties in consideration of a salary of from £50 to £75 per annum, or whether he will still be permitted, should he so desire, to serve on, as formerly, without a salary?
§ Colonel SEELYIt is not considered that the duties for which it is proposed to pay salaries up to £50 or £75 a year need involve the surrender of a civil occupation. There is no possible objection to a quartermaster serving on without a salary, but it will of course be necessary that he should be efficient, and that the duties required shall be properly carried out.
