HC Deb 08 September 1909 vol 10 c1310
Mr. PIKE PEASE (for Captain Faber)

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will state whether Lord Kitchener will be under the orders of the War Office or the Colonial Office when performing his future duties in East and West Africa?

Mr. HALDANE

It would be premature to enter at present on the details of Lord. Kitchener's appointment.
