§ 15. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKEasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the evidence of Private Wankin given at a district court-martial at Windsor on Saturday last, the 26th February; will he say how it happened that half a leg of good mutton was found in the refuse-bin; what Army Regulation is infringed by a man taking good meat from a dust-bin; who was the officer responsible for this waste; and what, if any, steps have been taken towards an inquiry into the matter?
§ Mr. TENNANTThe proceedings of this court-martial have not yet been received, and I am therefore at present unable to make a report to the House as to what happened in regard to the leg of mutton, or to deal with the other points mentioned, but I will inform the hon. Gentleman when the report has been received.
