HC Deb 24 June 1907 vol 176 c878
MR. PAULTON (Durham, Bishop Auckland)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he can say what arrangements are proposed to be made for affording to hon. Members an opportunity of visiting Aldershot on the 4th July.

MR. HALDANE

I have been in communication with Sir John French on the subject, and he has most kindly undertaken to arrange as interesting a programme as possible calculated to show hon. Members the nature of the training received by the troops, and the condition of life in barracks. If enough hon. Members signify their intention of going a special train will be engaged. Sir John French has promised to see to transport arrangements at Aldershot during the visit, and luncheon will be provided.
