HC Deb 17 March 1904 vol 131 cc1391-2
MR. CHARLES HOBHOUSE (Bristol, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether the services of supply and transport under the control of the third Military Member of Council are to be directed as two separate and distinct departments, neither of which is to be directed by an officer of the Army Service Corps.

*THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR AVAR (Mr. ARNOLD-FORSTER,) Belfast, W.

The organisation of these departments is not complete and I am therefore unable at the present time to give the information asked for by the hon. Member.
