HC Deb 15 June 1911 vol 26 cc1679-80
Mr. KING

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether there has been received from Aldershot any protest against the present system of camp trading in that town; if so, when and what answer was given; whether tenders for food supplies to soldiers at Aldershot are, by the conditions, confined to three firms only; and, if so, how he proposes to carry into effect the policy contained in the statement of the Army Council that the soldier in Aldershot is free to buy where he chooses stores of any description?

Colonel SEELY

Will my hon. Friend kindly refer to my reply to a question put on this subject by the hon. Member for the St. Patrick's Division of Dublin on the 19th April, to which I have nothing to add.
