§ Sir R. Glynasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will look into the question of the authorised establishment of regular Army instructors attached to units of the Territorial Army for training purposes in cases where in a scattered rural area a unit is up to strength and there is a proved shortage of these staff instructors available to visit and supervise the arms in the drill halls, bearing in mind that to conform to a rigid rule irrespective of local conditions is detrimental to efficiency and discouraging to recruiting?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaThere is no rigid rule. Scattered units are allowed a larger establishment than concentrated ones. If my hon. Friend has some particular case in mind I should be glad if he would inform me of it.
