81. Major MALONEasked the Secretary of State for War whether he has yet come to a decision with reference to the Volunteer force of this country; if it is the intention to continue their service or not; and what form of recognition, if any, he proposes to give for the services rendered by them during the War?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI am afraid I can add nothing at present to the reply given to the hon. Member for Stoke Newington on the 3rd April. The decision is dependent on the future constitution of the after-War Army and the policy to be adopted with regard to the Auxiliary forces. As stated in the reply referred to, the question of the grant of a badge is under consideration.
