asked the Secretary of State for War the amount of the grants in each case made towards the provision of messing, fuel and light and other services for members of the Army Cadet Force when attending camp; and the basis on which these grants are calculated.

The grants to Army Cadet Force units are not specifically allocated to the provision of particular services at camps. The annual grants include a capitation grant of 15s. for each qualified cadet, of which 7s. 6d. is for the expenses of training including training in camp, and a grant of 5s. for each cadet who has qualified in Certificate A (Part I or Part II) or Certificate T during the year.
