HC Deb 08 June 1904 vol 135 cc1057-8
SIR FREDERICK BANBURY (Comberwell, Peckham)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he is prepared to consider the question of the revival of the Ballot Act for the Militia as an alternative to the proposals of the Duke of Norfolk's Commission.

MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

The detailed proposals of the Commission are at present being carefully considered. There is no present intention of putting in force the Ballot Act for the Militia.
