HC Deb 10 December 1902 vol 116 cc652-3
MR. KEMP

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether Mounted Infantry Companies are to be retained as such, or to be returned to their regiments.

LORD STANLEY

A considerable number of Mounted Infantry Companies are still employed in South Africa. Mounted Infantry are being trained at home by passing as many Infantry men as possible through the training schools, returning them to their units when trained.
