HC Deb 07 November 1916 vol 87 c68W
Major NEWMAN

asked the Secretary of State for War whether temporary captains of the Veterinary Corps get 1s. 6d. a day more than Territorial veterinary captains; and whether an outfit allowance of £50 instead of £20 can be retrospectively granted to veterinary officers who had five years' service previous to mobilisation?

Mr. FORSTER

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, but the Territorial officer draws a larger gratuity. The answer to the second part is in the negative. Throughout the Service the £50 outfit grant is limited to officers who joined since mobilisation.
