HC Deb 09 December 1912 vol 45 c66W
Mr. CHARLES BATHURST

asked the Secretary for War if he will obtain a Return showing in how many military stations allotments or garden plots are provided for cultivation by the soldiers; for what proportion of the garrison are they provided; and in how many cases is instruction in gardening given?

Colonel SEELY

I find on inquiry that a detailed Return of the character mentioned could only be obtained after considerable labour, involving reference to a large number of separate places. I trust, therefore, that the hon. Gentleman will not press for this detailed Return.
