§ MR. REES (Montgomery Boroughs)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, seeing that the regulations for the Volunteer Force prohibited more than one promotion to honorary rank, and that thereby quartermasters were unable to rise beyond the honorary rank of captain, he will make provision in the regulations for the Territorial Army that quartermasters who have received the honorary rank of captain may, after a prescribed term of years, be allowed the further step to the honorary rank of major.
§ MR HALDANEYes, Sir. Provision will be made for this in the forthcoming regulations.
