Lieut.-Colonel BUCKLEYasked the Secretary of State for War if he is prepared to review the (pensions of those quartermasters of the Territorial Force who have served in the War and who are drawing pre-war pensions of non-commissioned officers, in view of the fact that during the War they have performed exactly the same duties as quartermasters of the Regular Army?
§ Mr. FORSTERIf my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion is that ex-soldiers who have served as officers only during the War should be granted the service pensions of officers, I am afraid I cannot adopt it.
