HC Deb 06 May 1901 vol 93 c737
MR. FREEMAN-THOMAS (Hastings)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he will consider the advisability of promoting efficient Militia non-commissioned officers of embodied Militia regiments to the staffs of their regiments.

THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY TO THE WAR OFFICE (Lord STANLEY, Lancashire, Westhoughton)

The scheme suggested by the hon. Member was given a trial some time ago, and, as it was not found successful, it was advisedly discontinued.
