HC Deb 31 May 1932 vol 266 c979
16. Lieut.-Colonel CLIFTON BROWN

(for Major HARVEY)asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office if the appointment of a Royal Artillery officer as officer in charge of cavalry records is a permanent or temporary appointment?

Mr. COOPER

The appointment of a Royal Artillery officer is temporary.

Major COLFOX

Is it not obvious that an officer of the Royal Artillery is the most competent person for this job, or, indeed, for any other job?
