§ MR. LAMBERT (Devonshire, South Molton)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he can state what steps the Government have taken or propose to take to redeem their pledge of an inquiry into the causes of our failures during the South African War.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI have more than once stated to the House that we do not propose that this Commission should begin its work until the war has finished, or very nearly reached its finish.
