HC Deb 12 March 1903 vol 119 cc572-3
MR. WILLIAM REDMOND (Clare, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, in reference to his statement last night as to a breach of the King's Regulations, in the flogging of two drummer boys, he will place on the Table of the House the evidence in regard to that transaction.

MR. BRODRICK

No, Sir, I have given my own statement as to a matter of fact, and I see no reason whatever for laying the Papers on the Table of the House.

COLONEL NOLAN (Galway, N.)

Will the right hon. Gentleman grant me the return as to flogging which I have put on the Paper?

MR. BRODRICK

No, Sir, I cannot in its present form.
