§ Sir FREDERICK BANBURYasked the Under-Secretary of State for War if, in view of the shortage of horses in this country, he would make arrangements for the return to this country of all Army horses, whether cast, or not, on the termination of the War, and of all cast horses at the present time?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONArrangements have been made, in consultation with the "Advisory Council for the Disposal of Surplus War Stores," for the repatriation of a very large number of the Army horses in France on the termination of the War, but it is not anticipated that shipping facilities will be available to bring back any large number of animals from other theatres of war. It has been decided, after consultation with the Board of Agriculture, not to return to this country horses now cast in France.
