HC Deb 04 May 1939 vol 346 cc2088-9W
Mr. Lyons

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will arrange increased facilities whereby efficient serving officers of the Territorial Army may transfer to Regular Army units, if they so desire?

Sir V. Warrender

A scheme has already been promulgated for granting a number of Regular commissions in the Royal Army Service Corps to selected officers of the Supplementary Reserve and the Territorial Army, without requiring them to pass the usual examination. The extension of the scheme to other arms of the Service is under consideration.
