HC Deb 15 July 1902 vol 111 cc245-6
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL (Donegal, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether the statement laid by Sir George White before the War Office, detailing the history of the siege of Ladysmith and his observations thereon, will now be published; and on what public ground, having regard to the fact that peace has been concluded, has the publication of this document been suppressed.

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

Sir George White's despatches on the siege of Ladysmith were presented to Parliament last year.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

But I want another Paper, the one he laid before the War Office with full details and comments.

MR. BRODRICK

I do not know of any such Paper.
