HC Deb 05 September 1893 vol 17 c108
COLONEL LOCKWOOD (Essex, Epping)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether a battalion of the Guards is to be ordered for service in Egypt this Autumn?

MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

It was contemplated to relieve one of the Line battalions in Egypt by a battalion of Guards, but that proposal will not be given effect to during this season.
