§ Mr. Parkerasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that when many Territorial regiments were embodied at the outbreak of war they had to produce certain articles of small kit, such as vest, shirt, etc., for which they received a small monetary payment; and that, although these can be replaced when they wear out, they only possess one set compared with two issued to the Regulars; and whether they can be put in the same position?
§ Sir E. GriggMen of the Territorial Army who, on embodiment, provided their own necessaries received a payment of 10s. The scale of clothing is the same for the Territorial and the Regular Army, and any additional issues required should have been made.
