HC Deb 02 May 1872 vol 211 c103
MR. H. A. HERBERT

asked the Secretary of State for War, If his attention has been drawn to a Regulation by the Lord Chamberlain which forbids the name of the Regiment, or Corps in some cases, being announced at Court, in addition to the name of the officer, on presentation to Her Majesty, and so making a distinction between the officers of the different branches of the auxiliary forces and those of the Regular Army, although they, like the latter, hold Her Majesty's commission; and, if he would endeavour to have the Regulation reconsidered?

MR. CARDWELL

, in answer, said, he could only repeat the Reply he had previously given to a similar Question—"The Regulations for the Queen's Courts are not within his province, but depended upon the commands of Her Majesty, and were carried out under the direction of the Lord Chamberlain."
