HC Deb 01 November 1945 vol 415 cc613-4
46 Mr. Driberg

asked the Prime Minister if he will review the qualifications for war medals and decorations and consider sympathetically the anomalous position of men who served in the Burma campaigns but are not eligible for the Burma Star.

The Lord President of the Council (Mr. Herbert Morrison)

I have been asked to reply. I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister gave to the hon. and gallant Member for Lewes (Major Tufton Beamish) on 16th October. The position of men who served in Burma is at present under consideration.
