HC Deb 25 July 1904 vol 138 cc1038-9
CAPTAIN NORTON

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether any Report has been submitted by the late Inspector-General of Recruiting for the betterment of recruiting; and, if so, whether it will be acted on.

MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

No special Report on the betterment of recruiting was submitted by the late Inspector-General of Recruiting. There are no recommendations in the Annual Report of the Inspector-General of Recruiting which have not been acted on, except in regard to legislation to deal with false characters, a Bill for which has passed through the other House, and will, I hope, be passed by this House.
