§ THE EARL OF DARTMOUTHMy Lords, I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for War when the new regulations for the Territorial Force will be issued. I may remind the noble Lord that they have been promised sometime, and that the regulations under which we at present act are in a somewhat chaotic condition.
THE UNDER-SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (LORD LUCAS)My Lords, we hope to commence the issue of the new regulations next week. They will be sent out then to General Officers commanding and to the County Associations, and we shall proceed with the supply to the various units concerned—that will go on as rapidly as we can get the copies from the printers.
