HC Deb 15 March 1897 vol 47 c661
MR. H. O. ARNOLD-FORSTER (Belfast, W.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he will furnish the Return on this day's Paper relating to details of recent military operations in Africa?

MR. BRODRICK

The Return in question would have to be obtained from the several Governments and Protectorates concerned; and its preparation would probably take much time and labour. On the other hand a Return is now in preparation a casualties on warlike operations from 1891 to 1896 inclusive; this will include most of the information desired by my hon. Friend.

MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

Will that be ready during the present Session?

MR. BRODRICK

I hope it will. We shall lose no time about it.
