111. Mr. MacCALLUM SCOTTasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether officers and men training at the grenade school, or schools, in Scotland receive any training in the use of trench mortars?
§ Mr. TENNANTNo instruction in use of trench mortars is given in grenade schools.
Mr. MacCALLUM SCOTTIs there any instruction saying that the village of Trum has the only school in Scotland in which instruction in the art of using trench mortars is supposed to be given?
§ Mr. TENNANTI wish the hon. Gentleman would put down a question as to what instruction is given in Scotland. I would then inform him. He is constantly raising this point on a supplementary question, but never has a substantive question upon it. I have no information in regard to it.
Mr. MacCALLUM SCOTTWill the right hon. Gentleman for his own information call for a report as to how many trench mortars there are for the purpose of instruction in Scotland, and how many officers there are qualified to give instruction?
§ Mr. TENNANTIf my hon. Friend asks me to do that, certainly I will.
