HC Deb 28 May 1900 vol 83 cc1491-2
SIR CHARLES DILKE (Gloucestershire, Forest of Dean)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the War Office have received a report on the disappearance of stores at the hospital in Intombi Camp during the first two months of the siege of Ladysmith; and whether any inquiry † See page 394. has taken place; and, if so, with what result.

* THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY TO THE WAR OFFICE (Mr. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS,) Birmingham, S.

No information has reached the War Office of this matter.

SIR CHARLES DILKE

When will you have the records of the court-martial held on this subject in December last?

* MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS

They have not come yet. I do not know how soon they may arrive. When they do, I will answer1 any question that may be put on the subject.
