HC Deb 26 July 1915 vol 73 c1931
3. Mr. NEVILLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the strength of the Dutch Army has recently been increased; and, if so, whether this increase has formed the subject of official or private communications between the British and Dutch Governments?

Lord ROBERT CECIL

I understand that up to the present there has been no increase in the Dutch Army- Any such increase is entirely a matter for the consideration of the Netherlands Government, and certainly has not formed the subject of communications, official or private, between that Government and His Majesty's Government.
