11. Captain Duncanasked the Secretary of State for War how many men are 8 still posted as missing from the British Expeditionary Force and the North West Expeditionary Force?
§ Captain MargessonI do not think it would be desirable to publish the figures asked for, as they would be of interest to the enemy.
Captain DuncanIn view of the fact that the number of men who are missing must be very few, will my right hon. and gallant Friend review the arrangements for allowances and allotments to their next-of-kin, so that they will continue in full until a decision is made as to whether a man is a prisoner of war or can be presumed killed?
§ Captain MargessonThat is a different question, and perhaps my hon. and gallant Friend will give me notice of it.
