HC Deb 16 February 1916 vol 80 c63W
Mr. AINSWORTH

asked the Prime Minister whether the Government will consider the introduction of a Bill, on the lines of Lord Lincolnshire's Bill of last Session, by which the Volunteer Training Corps in England and the National Guard in Scotland can be brought under War Office control and be employed for purposes of Home defence, thereby releasing Regular troops for more active service overseas?

The PRIME MINISTER

This question is under consideration.
