Mr. F. HALL (Dulwich)asked the Secretary for War if he will state when and by whom Sir Arthur Paget was informed that the troops in Ireland would be 1128W reinforced by further detachments from Aldershot and Lichfield; and whether orders of any kind were issued to the commanding officers in those districts to have troops in readiness for dispatch to Ireland?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe question of moving reinforcements in the case of serious disorders was discussed between my right hon. Friend and Sir A. Paget when the latter was in London, but as far as I am aware, no such orders as those referred to were given.
