§ *MR. HOZIER (Lanarkshire, S.)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether, in the interests of the embodied Militia and to encourage recruiting, arrangements could be made for posting Militia recruits straight to one of the Militia battalions, if stationed at home, instead of in the first instance to the regimental depôt for preliminary training.
*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS (for Mr. WYNDHAM)Militia recruits can best learn their drill at the headquarters of the regimental district.
