Admiralty Order in Council No. 22.

28 Jul 1893.

A.G.

Whereas it has been represented to us through the Naval Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Station that the ordinary allowance of one shilling a day usually granted to Artificers &c. in lieu of quarters is insufficient at Esquimalt :

And whereas we are of opinion that the allowance in question should be increased to 1s, 6d. a day :

We beg leave humbly to recommend that Your Majesty will be graciously pleased by Your Order in Council to sanction an extension of this allowance to One Shilling and Six Pence a day on production of vouchers showing such payment.

The Lords Commissioners of Your Majesty's Treasury have concurred in this proposal.

I.C.1951 / 1893.
