HC Deb 20 November 1919 vol 121 cc1133-4
81. Brigadier - General Sir OWEN THOMAS

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the extraordinary success of recruiting in Wales for the Welsh Army by Welsh officers, as initiated by him during the War, he can now see his way clear to advise the appointment of Welsh-speaking, or at least Welsh understanding, officers to command Welsh Territorial units?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Every consideration will be given to the hon. and gallant Member's proposal, but I am not in a position to make any definite statement on the subject at the present stage.
