§ Captain WRIGHTasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether, in view of the fact that officers holding Staff appointments, which are temporary rather; than acting, on being wounded receive ninety-one days' pay at the rate appropriate to the Staff appointment, the Regulation under which a regimental officer holding acting rank on being wounded drops the pays of the acting rank to receive that of his substantive rank can be modified in the direction of removing this distinction of treatment as between wounded officers serving in Staff appointments and with their regiments?
§ Mr. FORSTERThe treatment of Staff officers in this connection has no bearing on the Regulations relating to the acting rank of regimental officers. The regimental officer holding temporary rank does not drop his pay.
