HC Deb 07 June 1898 vol 58 c869
MR. BARTLEY (Islington, N.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the proposed separation of the Royal Artillery into mounted and dismounted branches will take effect this year?

MR. BRODRICK

The subject is one of great difficulty, and the details of the scheme, which is still under the consideration of the military authorities, will have to be carefully worked out before it can be finally accepted. I am unable at present to say whether it will take effect this year.
