HC Deb 21 August 1945 vol 413 c435
35. Sir Henry Morris-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for War what is the total number or officers, non-commissioned officers and men in the Army stationed at present in this country; and the number in the A.T.S. and auxiliary services.

Mr. Lawson

I would ask the hon. Member to await the reply to be given later by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister in answer to a similar Question.

Sir H. Morris-Jones

Would my right hon. Friend be prepared to issue weekly, or at some other interval, figures giving the numbers asked for in the Question so that the House could have some information on the position?

Mr. Lawson

I should be obliged if the hon. Gentleman would put that question to my right hon. Friend when he makes his statement.
