§ COLONEL ARBUTHNOTasked the Secretary of State for War, If he is prepared to state the action which Her Majesty's Government will take with reference to the appointment of a Royal Commission to inquire into the conditions of service of officers in the Ordnance Corps, and other matters relating thereto?
COLONEL LOYD LINDSAY, in reply, said, that his right hon. and gallant Friend (Colonel Stanley) had the appointment of the Commission under his careful consideration. The hon. and gallant Gentleman himself would admit that it was a matter of considerable difficulty and some delicacy. His right hon. and gallant Friend would shortly be able to state what action he could take.
