§ COL. DENNY (Kilmarnock Burghs)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether it is now, or has been for some time, permissible for an officer in the Regular Army to hold at the same time a commission in the Militia, Yeomanry, or Volunteers.
§ MR. BRODRICKIt is contrary to regulations for officers on full pay to hold Dual Commissions, but occasionally the Secretary of State for War for the time being has exercised his power on certain occasions, and has relaxed this rule in the interests of particular corps which would otherwise have been seriously inconvenienced.
