§ Major N. Macphersonasked the Secretary of State for War how many men on home establishment whose state of training and medical category render them fit for foreign service have never done any service abroad; and what proportion this represents of the total home establishment strength.
§ Mr. BellengerAs explained on 28th November, 1945, in reply to a question by the hon. and learned Member for North Hammersmith (Mr. Pritt), the figures required are not available from the normal strength returns and could not be ascertained without a considerable amount of research and correspondence. I can, however, assure the hon. and gallant Member that if there are any such men the number would be very small.
