Defences of the Colony Plan for Imperial Volunteer Forces
The Defence Minister Seddon outlined a reorganisation of New Zealand defences. He proposed dividing forces into permanent artillery, ordinary volunteers, imperial and colonial reserves, rifle clubs, and cadet corps. He estimated volunteers could rise from 4,200 to over 18,000, with total annual costs around 80,000, plus equipment and training expenses. A naval reserve and a military conference with Imperial officers were also urged.
