5. Mr. EDMUND HARVEYasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is now able to state whether Brigadier-General Elliot has been reinstated, or whether the Government have been able to take any steps to make use of his services?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for WAR (Mr. Macpherson)I understand that use will shortly be made of his services.
§ Mr. HOUSTONIn promising to carry out this act of tardy justice, can my hon. Friend go further, and promise to make good the financial loss to General Elliot?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONI cannot answer that question. I think my hon. Friend had better put that question to my right hon. Friend the Financial Secretary.
