§ Commander BELLAIRSasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether the War Office will now take parallel action to the Admiralty in regard to giving permission to men to wear either the rose or flag on St. George's Day; and, in view of the near approach of that day, whether he will announce the decision as publicly as possible, so that preparation can be made if the decision is favourable?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONSimilar action has already been taken by the Army Council, with His Majesty's approval, and the necessary steps have been taken to promulgate the decision to the troops.
