§ Mr. Piratinasked the Secretary of State for War if, as a sample, he will state how many of the 177 officers commissioned to the Brigade of Guards between July and December, 1945, were educated at Eton, Harrow, Winchester or other Headmaster Conference schools, respectively; and how many were educated at elementary schools.
§ Mr. LawsonAs I informed the hon. Member in reply to his Question on 16th April, the information asked for is not readily available. I should not feel justified at the present time, when the pressure (4 work is very heavy, in diverting the efforts of the War Office staff from their current duties to undertake the considerable detailed research which would be necessary to answer the hon. Member's Question.
