§ Colonel PHILLIPSasked the Secretary of State for War what are the present regulations under which purchases may be made in grocery bars or regimental institutes by persons other than soldiers in uniform; and whether he is aware of my cases where exceptions have been allowed to these regulations?
§ Mr. HALDANEParagraphs 1,175 and 1,176 of the King's Regulations define the persons who are entitled to deal at a regimental institute. The purchase of goods by civilians is prohibited, and persons entitled to deal there are not allowed to make purchases on their behalf. The reply to the second part of the question is in the negative.
