§ Brigadier Headasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the standard work used at the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, for the instruction of the cadets in Parliamentary matters is a work by Professor Laski; and whether he will take steps to ensure that some less partisan work is, in future, adopted for this purpose.
§ Mr. ShinwellThe standard work on Parliament used at the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, is Mr. Strathearn Gordon's "Our Parliament," published by the Hansard Society. Professor Laski's "Parliamentary Government in England" is used as an additional book on the subject. It is an accepted principle of military training that in making an appreciation more than one point of view should be studied.
