§ MR. MANSFIELD (Lincolnshire, Spalding)I beg; to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will state what conditions of service the Volunteers will be under this year; and whether, under the rules of their corps, Volunteers are required to send in their resignation before 31st March, or be liable to serve another year or pay a fine.
§ MR. ARNOLD-FORSTERThe conditions of service will be the same as last year. The rules of the corps and dates for resignation vary so considerably that it is not possible to give any reply to the latter part of the Question.
