HC Deb 04 March 1903 vol 118 cc1350-1
* COLONEL WELBY (Taunton)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will grant the Return standing on to-day's Paper relative to Army Officers (Removed, etc.).

MR. BRODRICK

This Return, if extended to ten years, would require a great amount of research. I can give my hon. friend the information he requires for two years, but this would not include officers called on to resign who are numbered amongst voluntary retirements.

COLONEL WELBY

Can we have it before the debate takes place next Wednesday?

MR. BRODRICK

I will do my best, but I am being asked to give a number of Returns at very short notice.
