HC Deb 01 April 1898 vol 55 c1668
MR. C. J. MONK (Gloucester)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether facilities will be given to Militia officers, whose battalion is ordered for the annual training between the 8th August and the 10th of September, and who are candidates for admission into the Army, to join some other battalion for the training at an earlier date, in consequence of the Army examination being fixed for the 12th of September?

MR. BRODRICK

The examination has been postponed until the 25th October to enable officers to train in their own battalions.
