§ MR. WEDGWOODTo ask the Secretary of State for War whether the non-commissioned officer instructors employed to train the Territorial Army are under the control of the Territorial Army officers or of the Regular Army; and what means the officer commanding the Territorial unit has of geting rid of unsatisfactory instructors or of enforcing discipline directly as in the regular service.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Haldane.) The instructors are under the control of officers commanding Territorial Force units. Serious cases of breach of discipline must be referred to the officer commanding the district. The removal of unsatisfactory instructors is carried out by the Army Council on the application of the colonel commanding.
