§ MR. CHARLES HOBHOUSE (Bristol, E.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he can obtain a reconsideration of the decision not to permit a more extended use of Richmond Park under proper regulations for the training of Metropolitan Volunteers.
§ MR. BRODRICKAs I have already explained to the House, the field training of the volunteers must be mainly carried out in camps. My right hon. friend the first Commissioner has already expressed his willingness to consider the extension 1079 of the area now used for volunteer drills, and is in communication with the Ranger on the subject.
