HC Deb 22 July 1937 vol 326 c2443W
Captain Macnamara

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, now that the Cadet Force is once more officially recognised, he will consider recommending that the National Cadet Association medal also be officially recognised and be authorised to be worn on the left breast, or, alternatively, whether he will consider recommending the creation of a cadet decoration on the same lines as the Territorial decoration?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

I presume my hon. and gallant Friend refers to the Long Service Badge awarded by the British National Cadet Association. Any proposal to recognise this badge officially, or to create a new medal in its place, would require inter-departmental consideration in the first instance which I will, if desired, initiate.
