HC Deb 29 October 1918 vol 110 c1284
56. Mr. WRIGHT

asked the Prime Minister if he will say, in view of Field-Marshal Sir Douglas Haig's last published dispatch, why the reserves of troops which appear to have been available were not in whole or in part on the Western Front, where they were wanted, in March of this year?

Mr. BONAR LAW

This is not a subject which can be usefully discussed by question and answer.

Mr. WRIGHT

Will any opportunity be given to the House to receive some explanation as to responsibility in this matter?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I think something might be said, but judging from precedent, and I think judging by the question, that the point is not understood at all. Of course there will be an opportunity for discussion on the Vote of Credit.
