HC Deb 09 March 1888 vol 323 cc700-1
MR. ISAACS (Newington, Walworth)

asked the Secretary of State for War, If it is a fact that Volunteer officers ac-companying their regiments to Alder-shot at Easter have been refused officers' quarters there; and, if so, whether the necesary orders will be issued to prevent those officers having to find quarters in the town, at a considerable distance from their regimental parades?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Mr. E. STANHOPE) (Lincolnshire, Horncastle)

There is every desire to accommodate the Volunteers at Easter, both at Alder-shot and in other districts; but it is not possible to allot to them officers' quarters unless there are quarters vacant. None which are available have been refused to them.
