§ 37. Mr. OUTHWAITEasked the Secretary of State for War whether he can state the casualties of the Australian forces in France since 1st July?
§ Mr. FORSTERNo, Sir; it is not desirable on military grounds to give this information.
§ Mr. OUTHWAITEWhy is it that the lists can be published from day to day but not the total casualties?
§ Mr. FORSTERI think the hon. Member will see if he looks at the pages of the lists that they are anterior to the date he mentions.
