HC Deb 14 February 1913 vol 48 cc1414-5W
Mr. BOWERMAN

asked the Secretary of State for War if his attention has been drawn to the fact that during a dispute between members of the Musicians' Union and the management of a Metropolitan theatre, two members of the Coldstream Guards band took and are still filling the places of men on strike; whether military bandsmen are permitted to accept engagements under such circumstances; and, if not, what action it is proposed to take in the matter?

Colonel SEELY

Inquiries will be made and the result communicated to my hon. Friend in due course.
