asked the Secretary of State for War who is responsible for the issue of the new edition of the Manual of Military Law, 1907; and what is the cause of the delay in its publication?

The War Office is responsible for the issue of the Manual of Military Law, but its revision necessitates most careful consideration by the legal authorities.
