HC Deb 16 August 1909 vol 9 cc1059-60W
Mr. GOULDING

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India if he will state how many officers are now serving in the Indian Army who have had more than two years' service in the British Army before their transfer to the Indian service?

The MASTER of ELIBANK

The information desired by the hon. Member is not available in the India Office, and its extraction from service records in India would be a matter of much labour. The Secretary of State sees no sufficient reason at present to call for the figures.
