§ Mr. BUTCHERasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the temporary female clerks employed in the Army Pay offices are entitled to the bonus of 4s. a week granted by Army Order of 1st July, 1916, to temporary clerks?
§ Mr. FORSTERThe question whether any bonus should be given to female clerks engaged since the War began depends upon the rate of pay already received, and is left to the discretion of the local authorities. The maximum bonus allowable is 2s. a week.
