§ 32. Mr. DOUGLAS HALLasked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware that neither the Hampshire Territorial Association nor the War Office make any contribution to the parish of Calbourne, Isle of Wight, in lieu of the loss of rates which this parish has sustained owing to the Government having acquired many hundreds of acres of land in the parish for the purpose of a rifle range; and if the War Office can see their way to make some contribution to relieve the parishioners in respect of this loss?
§ Colonel SEELYI have received a letter on this subject, but am not at present in a position to make any statement.
