§ 13. Mr. HOGGEasked the Prime Minister whether he can state the number of casualties to the latest possible date; and whether he has now considered, as promised, any scheme whereby the country can be informed at more regular intervals of the total losses in the field?
§ Mr. TENNANTTotal figures of casualties may be given when the exigencies of the military situation permit, but lists of names are continually being published; they are issued as soon as possible after verification of the names and notification to the next of kin. The latest total reported up to 11th April inclusive is 139,347.
