§ 63. Rear-Admiral BEAMISHasked the Secretary of State for War whether and to what extent inconvenience to the 829 public caused by gun-firing from New-haven Fort can be further minimised in the future?
§ Mr. T. SHAWThe question whether the programme of firing at Newhaven can be reduced in future, having regard to training requirements, is being carefully examined, but no decision has as yet been reached.
§ Rear-Admiral BEAMISHDoes the right hon. Gentleman consider that heavy gun firing by Territorial units is essential?
§ Mr. SHAWThat is a question on which naturally I must have the advice of the expert advisers of the War Office.
