§ LORD EDWARD CAVENDISHwho had given Notice of a Question to the Secretary of State for War as to whether he will take into consideration the effect the proposed changes, as detailed at page 7 in the Memorandum lately issued on Regimental Organization, will 753 have on the prospects of the senior captains in the Line who, under the existing Regulations, would in a short time become mounted majors? said, he would not put the Question in the form in which he had put it on the Paper, but would ask whether the House would have an opportunity of discussing the scheme before it was finally adopted?
§ MR. CHILDERSI am glad my noble Friend has not put the Question of which he has given Notice, inasmuch as it is extremely intricate and involved. In asking that he will communicate with me personally, may I say that when, after the Recess, the Army Votes come on, there will be ample opportunity for discussing the questions which he wished to raise?
