a Volunteer Reserve Ordinance similar to those passed in some West Indian and other Colonies on the recommendation of the Colonial Defence Committee.
This Ordinance would follow the general lines of the Volunteer Ordinance, except that each of the corps or associations composing the Volunteer Reserve would at ordinary times be a non-military, self-governing body, of which the members have undertaken liability to be called out for actual military service in the same contingencies as are prescribed in the case of Volunteers, and in return are permitted the use of Government rifles, a free allowance of ammunition for such members as complete an annual musketry course defined in regulations, and certain other facilities as regards the use of range accommodation and the purchase of additional ammunition on favourable terms.
