asked the Secretary of State for War whether he has now received the finding of the general officer commanding in regard to the raid carried out in Gough Barracks, Armagh, by the Irish Republican Army on 12th June; and whether he is now in a position to make a further statement on the subject.
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
