HC Deb 02 March 1911 vol 22 c701W
Mr. STAVELEY-HILL

asked the Secretary of State for War whether officers of the Regular Forces appointed adjutants of Yeomanry after 12th July, 1910, have had the additional pay reduced by 2s. 6d. a day as a consequence of not being called upon to perform as many duties as those appointed before that date; and, if not, whether he will state the facts which have dictated the reduction of additional pay?

Mr. HALDANE

No alteration has been made in the duties of an adjutant of Yeomanry in this connection. The reduction has been made to bring these appointments into line with those of adjutants of other Territorial Force units.

Mr. STAVELEY-HILL

asked the Secretary of State for War whether officers appointed adjutants of Artillery, Engineers, and Infantry in the Territorial Force on and after 12th July, 1910, perform additional duties for their additional pay; and, if not, whether he can see his way to grant the same amount of additional pay to adjutants appointed before this date?

Mr. HALDANE

I must ask the hon. Member to refer to my replies to questions put on this subject by the hon. and gallant Member for the Bodmin Division of Cornwall on the 28th February to which I have nothing to add.
