HC Deb 16 November 1937 vol 329 c238W
Sir P. Hurd

asked the Secretary of State for War what measures he is taking to meet the shortage of officers in the Regular Army; whether the matter is under inquiry to ascertain the causes of this shortage; and how far it is due to unattractive pay and allowances?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

The committee will, I understand, be reporting before the end of this year.
