§ MR. COURTENAY WARNERI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he will take steps to allow regiments of Militia which are weak to enlist men in neighbouring large towns outside their districts or counties where recruits could easily be got.
§ MR. BROMLEY DAVENPORTThe practice of temporarily extending the recruiting area of a unit is already permitted by the regulations, and is adopted when any good result can be obtained. Further, when large towns border on several counties, recruiting officers are allowed to consider such towns common to the several county Militia.
