asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the Army Council have yet come to any decision as to the recommendations of the committee appointed to examine the promotion situation in the Army educational corps.

Lieut.-Colonel Sir A. LAMBERT WARD (Vice-Chamberlain of the Household):

I have been asked to reply. The answer is in the negative.

Can the hon. and gallant Member give any idea how soon we shall have these recommendations.

Perhaps the hon. Member will put down another question in a fortnight's time.
