§ 88. Mr. HOGGEasked the Under-Secretary for War whether he can give the number of men on the waiting list for commissions in the New Army?
§ Mr. TENNANTThe number of suitable candidates for temporary commissions varies from day to day, and depends upon the number of applications received and the vacancies and training facilities available from time to time.
§ Mr. HOGGEWill the right hon. Gentleman state how many of these applicants, varying from day to day, have any training compared with men who are being refused commissions because they cannot get their colonel's certificate?
§ Mr. TENNANTPerhaps the hon. Member will give me notice of that question.
