HC Deb 01 September 1893 vol 16 c1726
COLONEL HOWARD VINCENT (Sheffield, Central)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if the Lieutenant General commanding the troops at Aldershot has submitted to headquarters any Report concerning the recent concentration under him of 20,000 Volunteers from all parts of the country; and if Sir Evelyn Wood in any way whatever endorses the denunciation of the drill, the efficiency, and the discipline of the forces by the correspondent of The Times and by the author of the essay lately published by the United Service Institution?

*MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

No Report on the recent concentration of Volunteers at Aldershot has yet been received from Sir Evelyn Wood.
