HC Deb 18 April 1901 vol 92 c601
SIR HOWARD VINCENT (Sheffield, Central)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, having regard to the importance of having troops trained in mounted duty and scouting ready to meet without delay any further demand on the part of Lord Kitchener, such bodies are now being prepared for immediate despatch to South Africa.

MR. BRODRICK

Yes, Sir. The training of mounted infantry at home is being continued.
