HC Deb 17 January 1902 vol 101 c173
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, whether copies of the heliograms which passed between Sir Redvers Buller and Sir George White during the Seige of Ladysmith will be printed and circulated among honourable Members before the termination of the Debate on the Address to the Throne.

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

It is not proposed to publish the heliograms alluded to apart from telegrams affecting the same operations.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

When will both heliogram and telegrams be published? (Cries of "Order.") This is a question arising directly out of the answer. Let him answer "Yes" or "No," but he must not sit silent.

[No answer was given.]
