§ MR. SIMONDSasked the Secretary of State for War, Whether he is aware that in some cases the same men are returned on the effective strength of both Militia and Volunteer regiments; and, if he is, whether he has any objection to obtain a Return showing the number of such men?
§ MR. CARDWELLIt is contrary to regulation that any man should belong to both forces, and the Inspector General of Reserve Forces is not aware of any such case. If he was, he would at once order the man's discharge from the Volunteer Force.
