§ MR. COGHILLI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the desirability in garrison towns, such as Liverpool and Manchester, of allowing the use of the riding school of cavalry barracks for the purpose 1936 of giving equitation lessons to the non-commissioned officers and drivers of Volunteer Position Artillery stationed in such towns; and whether he is aware that the present arrangements entail a cost of from £50 to £60 a year on Volunteer Artillery Corps?
§ MR. E. STANHOPEIf definite applications on the subject should be made by officers commanding batteries of Volunteer Artillery, endeavours will be made to meet their wishes as far as possible. I have no information as to the cost entailed on Volunteer Artillery Corps by the present arrangements.
