§ 70. Mr. GEORGE JONESasked the Secretary of State for War what steps he is proposing to take, or has taken, to inquire into the circumstances attending the return of the armoured car brigade to Belton Park camp from Mesopotamia on 28th February last; and whether he will see that evidence is taken from the men themselves of the armoured car brigade as to their treatment?
Captain GUESTAs I stated on Thursday last, I have given directions for a special inquiry to be made into this matter, but, as this is not yet complete, I am unable to make any further statement at present. Any evidence necessary to arrive at the facts of the case will be taken.
