HC Deb 30 November 1916 vol 88 c463
34. Major NEWMAN

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he can give the reasons which have made it necessary to withhold the measure of recognition asked for by the Association of Volunteer Training Corps in Ireland and to the consequent disbanding of the various training corps?

Mr. DUKE

This matter is not one of Irish administration. It was decided by the Secretary of State for War.
