Mr. Poole

asked the Secretary of State for War how often the War Establishments Committee meets; and what length of time usually elapses from the date of application for review of any establishment until a decision is given?

Mr. Law

The War Establishments Committee meets daily except Sundays. As regards the last part of the Question, the time varies according to the circumstances of the individual cases. Urgent cases are dealt with in a few hours.
