HC Deb 29 March 1910 vol 15 c1285W
Captain FABER

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty if he will state on what date it was decided to raise the pay of reserve colonels, Royal Marines, from £600 a year to £700?

Mr. McKENNA

Officers on the reserve list of colonels have always had the same pay as retired colonels-commandant. The pay of the latter was raised in 1881 from £600 per annum to the full pay of colonel-commandant, which is as stated in reply to the hon. Member's question of the 23rd March.
