55. Brigadier-General Spears

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider calling up Army Reservists for training in modern weapons and new tactical methods?

The Financial Secretary to the War Office (Sir Victor Warrender)

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the statement made on this subject by my right hon. Friend in introducing the Army Estimates on 8th March last.

Mr. Anstruther-Gray

Can my hon. Friend say what uniform is to be issued to these reservists?

Sir V. Warrender

There is a regular schedule laid down. I can give my hon. Friend details, if he wishes.

Brigadier-General Spears

How soon will the process of taking out the total reservists be completed?

Sir V. Warrender

I should like to see that question put upon the Paper.
