HC Deb 08 March 1900 vol 80 c383
MR. BUCHANAN (Aberdeenshire, E.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the two Native Indian regiments to be borne on the Estimates are existing regiments at present forming part of the Native Army in India, or are they to be raised in India by the British Government.

*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS (for Mr. Wyndham)

The regiments form part of the existing Indian Army.

MR. BUCHANAN

Will the Home Government pay the capitation grant to the Government of India?

*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS

I must ask for notice of that.
