§ MR. CLAUDE HAY (Shoreditch, Hoxton)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he will state how many permanent staff sergeant-majors are employed in the Territorial Yeomanry; and what percentage of these noncommissioned officers have served abroad in the Regular Army.
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. HALDANE,) HaddingtonThe establishment of permanent staff sergeant-majors in the Territorial Yeomanry is 280, and is complete. All these men are ex-Regulars. It is impossible to say how many have served abroad without calling for special returns from the record offices.
