HC Deb 19 February 1901 vol 89 c467
CAPTAIN NORTON (Newington, W.)

On behalf of the hon. Member for North Aberdeen, I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether any order, either from Lord Roberts or Lord Kitchener, or any other general qualified to give such an order, has been issued that the Boers dressed in khaki when captured are to be shot; and, if so, if he can state what was the date of such order, what were its terms, and in how many cases has it been acted upon.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. BRODRICK,) Surrey, Guildford

No, Sir. Certainly not.
