§ Mr. Kirbyasked the Secretary of State for War how many commissions have been granted to persons whom it was intended to employ in the catering services of the Army; and what percentage of such commissions were granted to persons formerly employed by, or in connection with, the firm of Messrs. Joseph Lyons and Company?
§ Mr. A. HendersonIt would not be in the public interest to disclose the number of commissions granted for service in the Army Catering Corps. Of the total, however, about 5 per cent. were formerly employed or connected with the company referred to by my hon. Friend.
