§ CAPTAIN NORTONI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been directed to a letter, Form 106, sent by the Commandant of the Royal Military College to parents and guardians of cadets, in connection with the theft of letters in that establishment; and whether he can make arrangements for cashing crossed cheques in the Royal Military College mess or canteen, and for the safe distribution of letters.
§ MR. BRODRICKMy attention has been called to the circular in question. I am informed that it would be difficult to keep a stock of ready money in the canteen or in the mess for the purpose of cashing cheques. I may, however, state that a recent arrangement has been made which will render remittances to the cadets practically unnecessary. Arrangements have been made which should ensure the safe distribution of letters.
