HC Deb 07 March 1917 vol 91 cc374-5
24. Colonel M'CALMONT

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the difficulties of finding officers, the possibility of increasing the establishment of warrant officers to take the places of junior commissioned officers has been or will be considered?

Mr. MACPHERSON

This matter is receiving careful consideration, and I hope to be in a position to announce a decision shortly.
