The report advocates various changes at the Admiralty and War Office, and deprecates centralization of responsibility in the Commander-in-Chief, and advocates the creation. of a special organization with the Chief of the Staff and Department, comprising the present Int lligence Branch and such part of the Adjutant General's division as deals with mobilization and defence schemes.

All heads of Departments are henceforth to be directly answerable for economy and efficiency in their respective Departments. The report also advocates the creation of an Ordnance Department. *-
