§ * MR. BROOKFIELD (Sussex, Rye)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to letters in the press, signed by the commanding officer of one of the Metropolitan Volunteer Battalions, making complaints and charges against the War Office and the military authorities; whether the authorities intend to take any notice of this serious breach of discipline by an officer on the active list; or whether it is the case that no machinery exists for dealing with cases of this kind in any other way than by depriving the offender of his commission.
§ * MR. WYNDHAMThe matter is under the consideration of the military authorities.
