HC Deb 06 July 1877 vol 235 c821
SIR ALEXANDEB GOEDON

asked the Secretary of State for War, If he will state to the House whether Her Majesty's Government intend to carry into effect the recommendation of the Militia Committee which sat last year with respect to giving territorial titles to the regiments of the Army, and depriving them of their numerical titles?

MR. GATHOENE HARDY,

in reply, said, it was not the intention to deprive the regiments of their numerical titles; but to arrange them on the footing proposed by the Commander-in-Chief in 1873.
