HC Deb 25 October 1906 vol 163 c399
MR. SEARS (Cheltenham)

To ask the Secretary of State for India whether, in view of the contemplated increase of British officers to Indian regiments, he will consider the desirability of placing some commissions in the Indian Army at the disposal of the War Office for distribution among subalterns serving in regiments stationed in Great Britain.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Morley.) The question of opening the Indian Army to officers serving in British units in any quarter of the Empire is under consideration, and I am waiting for the opinion of the Government of India on it.
