§ Mr. H. Hyndasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many armoured cars are held on the establishment of the 462W Jewish Settlement Police in Palestine; and why permission has not been granted to bring out these armoured cars for the purpose of convoy.
§ Mr. Rees-WilliamsSeventeen armoured cars are held on the establishment of the Jewish Settlement Police. These have been authorised for close defence of Jewish colonies and are not intended for general convoy duty. In this connection I would invite the hon. Member's attention to the reply given to my hon. Friend the Member for East Harrow (Mr. Skinnard) on 18th December.
