HC Deb 08 July 1946 vol 425 cc29-30W
136. Mr. H. Hynd

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will fix a date beyond which General Anders' Army will not be entitled to wear military uniform.

Mr. Lawson

The personnel of General Anders' Army will in due course be en- rolled in the Polish Resettlement Corps. For many who remain in this country civil employment may be found and for these the wearing of military uniform will cease. For others, however, there will be group employment by units, and men will be under British military discipline. They will therefore continue to wear uniform. No date can therefore be fixed beyond which these Poles will not be entitled to wear military uniform.
