§ 75. Mr. Sorensenasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how many Danes have been recruited for the British Army; what arrangement between our own and the Danish Government exists for the purpose of the military and other training of Danish subjects; and what agreement or understanding exists between the two Governments in respect of military defence and obligations involved in membership of U.N.O.
Mr. Noel-BakerWith the approval of the Danish Government, 2,500 Danes have been enlisted into the British Army. In answer to a Question by the hon. Member for St. Marylebone (Sir W. Wakefield) on 3rd April my right hon. Friend explained the technical assistance which is being given to the Danish Government by small British Naval, Military and Air Force Missions. The agreements to be made by Members of the United Nations under the Charter for Mutual defence against aggression are still the subject of technical examination by the Military Staff Committee of the Security Council.
§ Mr. SorensenDo I understand from the latter part of the reply that the Danish Government are not expected by the British Government, nor have the British Government attempted at any time to induce the Danish Government, to comply with certain military commitments?
