HC Deb 17 July 1918 vol 108 cc1058-9W
Colonel FABER

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether changes have been made in the award of the Territorial decoration to secure that mobilised service during the present War is to count double time, and that the qualification is to be reduced from twenty years' commissioned service to fifteen years; and whether mobilised service during the South African War counted double towards the award?

Mr. MACPHERSON

As regards the first part of my hon. and gallant Friend's question, I regret I can add nothing at present to my reply on the 25th June last to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Southampton. The answer to the last part of the question is in the negative.
