HC Deb 20 April 1899 vol 70 c41
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War, having regard to the fact that when in 1867 the arms and clothing of the 3rd Battalion of Seaforth Highlanders (Ross-shire Militia) were transferred from Dingwall to Fort George with the concurrence of the county authority, that authority was not a representative body, will he, in view of the unanimous desire of the Dingwall Town Council that the entire staff and regiment may be quartered in the county town, reconsider his decision on the subject, and provide the necessary additional accommodation?

MR. POWELL WILLIAMS

There is no reason for altering the decision expressed in my reply to the honourable Member's Question of the 20th March.

Forward to
