HC Deb 24 February 1908 vol 184 c1342
MR. FELL (Great Yarmouth)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War with respect to Royal Garrison Artillery Volunteers transferring into the Territorial Army, how many drills will be required by recruits and trained men, respectively; and what will be the minimum attendance required in camp each year.

MR. HALDANE

The number of drills which recruits of the Territorial Garrison Artillery will be required to attend will be forty-five, as for the present Volunteers. They will also attend camp unless excused by the General Officer Commanding. Trained soldiers of the Territorial Garrison Artillery will be required to attend twenty drills annually in addition to the annual training in camp which will be from eight to fifteen days. A pamphlet setting forth the requirements of training for all arms will be issued shortly.

MR. FELL

When will it be available?

MR. HALDANE

I hope in a few days.
