HC Deb 18 February 1920 vol 125 c862
8. Colonel YATE

asked what arrangements have been made to remedy the shortage of British officers with the battalions of the Indian Army and to give leave to those officers who have for so long been deprived of it.

Mr. FISHER

A large number of temporary officers have been recruited from various sources to remedy the shortage, and I understand that regular officers are now coming home on leave pretty freely.
