MR. JOHN AVILSON (Falkirk Burghs)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the General commanding the forces in Scotland reported adversely as to the reinstatement of the disbanded Airdrie Volunteers.
§ *Mr. WYNDHAMThe hon. Member received an intimation in May that General Turner, the Inspector General of Auxiliary Forces, would be happy to discuss this question with him if he would call. I submit that that is the best course for him to follow. In reply to a further question by Mr. Wilson, Mr. Wyndham said the last official report was dated two years since. The hon. Member had better discuss the matter with the proper military authorities.
§ *MR. WYNDHAMI will consider that, but the hon. Member had far better pursue the proper course in the matter, and consult the Inspector General of Auxiliary Forces.
