HC Deb 01 February 1929 vol 224 c1283W
Colonel CLIFTON BROWN

asked the Secretary of State for War if he can now say if the new system of issuing amendments to books of Army Regulations has proved satisfactory to officers and other ranks of the Army; and also if any economy has been effected by this method?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

Reports from the Commands have recently been received and are now under examination. As regards the last part of the question, the experiment has been made primarily with a view to efficiency and the convenience of officers and other ranks, but in fact the new system shows a small saving in cost compared with the old.
