HC Deb 14 December 1916 vol 88 c898W
Colonel CRAIG

asked the Secretary of State for India, whether he will direct that in future when a squadron com mander, Indian Army, Expeditionary Force, is transferred to any other appointment necessitating his squadron being commanded by another officer, such officer be paid for the extra work he has consequently to perform at the recognised rates of allowance?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I am unacquainted with the particular circumstances to which the question refers, but have no reason to doubt that if an officer is entitled by rule to an allowance for acting as squadron commander he will get it.
