HC Deb 28 June 1909 vol 7 c7
Major ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

asked the Secretary of State for War whether it is intended to remove the headquarters of the Army in South Africa from Pretoria to Cape Town; and, if so, when will the change take place.

Mr. HALDANE

The question of the locality of the headquarters of the troops in South Africa is now receiving careful consideration. It would be premature at the present moment to make any statement on the subject.
