§ Mr. HAYESasked the Secretary of State for War whether the 25 general staff officers, paid from Army funds, who received for services as examiners sums 51W ranging from £53 2s. 9d. to £396 4s. were in receipt of full pay according to their rank; whether their appointments were whole-time appointments; and, if so, what was the reason for the extra remuneration during the year 1923–24?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANSAs this question arises on the Army Account, 1923–24, which at present stands referred to the Select Committee on Public Accounts, I propose to defer reply until the Committee have reported.
