§ 63. Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWENasked whether the new regulations for the probationary training of officers of the Special Reserve have yet been published; and whether he is aware that the delay in publishing them is increasing the difficulty of commanding officers in obtaining subaltern officers?
§ Mr. TENNANTThe new regulations have not been issued yet, but they will, it is anticipated, be included in next month's Army Orders.
§ 64. Mr. AMERYasked whether it has been decided to abandon the annual training of the Special Reserve in Ulster this year; and, if so, whether he will state the reason for this decision?
§ Mr. TENNANTThe reply to the first part of the question is in the negative. The second part, therefore, does not arise.
§ Mr. NEWMANIs the training of the North of Ireland and the South of Ireland Forces going to be held or abandoned this year?
§ Mr. TENNANTI must have notice of that question.
