§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the Imperial Committee of Defence will consider the difficulties in adopting any War Office scheme which seeks to group Highland regiments with Lowland regiments, divest them of the kilt, and quarter them with Lowland regiments in the Lowlands of Scotland.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI am told there is to be no grouping of Highland with Lowland regiments, that there is no change to be made as regards their quarters, and that there is no idea of divesting Highland regiments of their kilts.
