§ Sir W. ALLENasked the Secretary of State for War whether, in the case of an officer holding a regular commission in His Majesty's Army who has completed a period of service qualifying him for retired pay, sentence of dismissal from the service by general court-martial, when confirmed, involves forfeiture of such retired pay?
Mr. COOPERThe rules governing the award of retired pay in the circumstances in question are contained in Article 547 of the Royal Warrant for Pay, etc., 1931, a copy of which I am sending to my hon, and gallant Friend.
