HC Deb 23 July 1929 vol 230 c1122W
Mr. HORE-BELISHA

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his Department will consider establishing a welfare organisation for the Army similar to that existing in the Navy?

Mr. SHAW

I know of ho ground for altering the present system under which the superintendence of the welfare of the rank and file is one of the duties performed by all officers. This is regarded as most suitable to the Army.
