HC Deb 22 March 1877 vol 233 c331
COLONEL BARNE

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether he has any intention of altering or abolishing the numbers of any regiments of the Regular Army; and, if so, whether the House will have an opportunity of discussing this alteration before it is carried into effect?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY

I have not formed any intention upon the subject at present; but if I should do so, I shall no doubt be responsible to Parliament.
