HC Deb 26 May 1919 vol 116 cc861-2W
Mr. J. JONES

asked the Secretary of State for War whether troops now serving in this country are considered to be on active service; if, in the event of such troops being used in possible industrial disputes, they will be considered to be on active service in the technical sense; and whether troops serving in Ireland are considered to be on active service?

Mr. FORSTER

All troops at present serving in the United Kingdom are considered to be on active service.
