HC Deb 22 November 1938 vol 341 c1526
39. Mr. Anstruther-Gray

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider allowing facilities to those officers on the Regular Army Reserve who so desire to keep themselves abreast of modern developments in training and equipment?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

Yes, Sir. This will be one of the matters to be considered in connection with Army Estimates for 1939.

Mr. J. J. Davidson

Will these officers receive facilities to keep abreast of modern political developments?

Mr. Churchill

Will this system be extended to cover the Reservists, men as well as officers?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

I could not call this a system, but the whole matter will be considered.
