HC Deb 27 January 1931 vol 247 cc823-4W
Mr. AYLES

asked the Secretary of State for War how many schools previously receiving grants towards the maintenance of cadet corps have applied since March last for permission to establish a contingent of the Officers' Training Corps; and in how many instances such permission has been granted?

Mr. SHAW

Of the schools which previously received grants towards the maintenance of cadet corps, 18 have applied since March last for permission to establish a contingent of the Officers' Training Corps. In none of these cases has it been possible to grant this request, since the total establishment of the Officers' Training Corps is limited.
