§ Sir A. HOLBROOKasked the Secretary of State for War whether the two 280W major-generals of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, who were stated in the reply given on 13th July, 1920, to be employed in colonel's appointments, will be retained on the active list after they reach the age limit for colonels of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, which these two officers reach on the 24th May and 3rd July, 1021, respectively; if so, how the effect on the promotion of officers junior to them will be adjusted, seeing that many of these junior officers performed equally good service, probably under more trying climatic conditions; and if he has considered the effect that the retention of these two major-generals would have on the promotion of a very large number of officers junior to them in the corps?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANSIt has been decided that the two major-generals, Royal Army Veterinary Corps, employed in colonel's appointments shall be retired on reaching the age of 57, the age limit of colonels of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps.
