HC Deb 11 July 1878 vol 241 c1244
SIR GEORGE CAMPBELL

asked the Secretary of State for War, If he is yet prepared to nominate the Committee to inquire into the cost of Indian Troops employed in Europe?

COLONEL STANLEY

I have been in communication with my hon. Friend the Secretary to the Treasury on this subject, and I think it will be possible to nominate the Committee early next week. I have already said that I do not anticipate that its inquiries will be very prolonged.

MR. CHILDERS

inquired, Whether the Instructions to the Committee would be laid on the Table?

COLONEL STANLEY

The Reference to the Committee will pretty well cover their Instructions,
