§ DR. THOMPSON (Monaghan, N.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he has recently had an interview with some of the commanding officers of Militia regiments; and, if so, will he lay upon the Table of the House a summary of their suggestions for the improvement of the Militia.
§ MR. ARNOLD-FORSTERThe interview referred to was of a private character. The principal questions discussed were those raised by the recommendations of the Norfolk Commission. It is not intended to publish a report of the proceedings of the conference, and it is believed that publication of a summary as suggested would be likely to produce misunderstanding.
