§ Mr. W. Robertsasked the Prime Minister whether he can state the number of Italian troops now located in Libya; and whether they exceed the number agreed to under the Anglo-Italian Agreement?
§ Mr. ButlerI would refer to the reply given to the hon. Member for Central Southwark (Mr. Day) on the 8th March. Count Ciano in his note of 16th April, 1938, did not specify any particular number as the strength of the Italian forces in Libya.
