HC Deb 28 July 1902 vol 111 cc1353-4
MR. WINSTON CHURCHILL (Oldham)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he is yet in a position to make any statement in regard to the Sandhurst incident and the investigations of the Commander-in-Chief.

MR. BRODRICK

The Commander-in-Chief has completed his inquiry into the Sandhurst incident, and the additional evidence which has come to light has made it possible for him to exonerate all but two of the cadets who were rusticated. Arrangements have been made for examination by which those exonerated will, if successful, lose no seniority.

MR. WINSTON CHURCHILL

May I ask whether, in view of the fuller evidence that has come to light, the case of the three servants sent away at the same time will be reconsidered?

MR. BRODRICK

The cases of the three servants are under consideration.
