§ MR. FIENNES (Oxfordshire, Banbury)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the advisability of granting a long service medal to those officers who have not I served for not loss than ten years in the Auxiliary Forces and who do not transfer to the Territorial Army.
§ MR. HALDANEThe question of granting the Volunteer Officers' Decoration to officers who do not transfer to the Territorial Force and who have not completed the necessary twenty years service is under consideration, and I hope to be able shortly to announce that we can make some concession on this point. As regards Militia and Yeomanry Officers the question does not apply.
