§ SIR CARNE RASCH (Essex, Chelmsford)To ask the Secretary of State for War whether the Essex Yeomanry, or any part of it, will be employed in the manœuvres in Essex, and if pay will be granted.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Arnold-Forster.) The composition of the opposing forces at the forthcoming Army Manœuvres has not yet been finally decided. The advantage of employing local Yeomanry will not be lost sight of, and the question of paying them, if their services are utilised, will receive due consideration.
