HC Deb 05 November 1912 vol 43 c1008
23. Mr. WHELER

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his scheme of classification of horses for Army purposes is being carried out throughout Ireland; and, if so, whether owners of horses in Ireland will also be compelled to part with their horses on mobilisation?

Colonel SEELY

The reply to both questions is in the affirmative.

Mr. WHELER

May I ask whether that condition will hold good in the event of the Home Rule Bill being granted for Ireland?

Colonel SEELY

Certainly.
