HC Deb 23 April 1940 vol 360 cc10-1
15. Dr. Little

asked the Secretary of State for War whether any of the men who raided Ballykinlar military camp, county Down, on 10th February have yet been brought to justice; how many of the stolen rifles have been recovered: and what steps have been taken to prevent the recurrence of such a raid upon the camp?

Mr. Stanley

No arrests have been made, and no rifles have been recovered. It would clearly not be desirable to publish the information asked for in the last part of the Question.

Dr. Little

Can my right hon. Friend say whether there is any prospect at all of these raiders being brought to justice?

Mr. Stanley

That is a matter for the police authorities in Northern Ireland.
