HC Deb 23 February 1948 vol 447 cc283-4W
19. Mr. Philips Price

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what assistance we are affording to the Greek Government by way of advice, training or supply of equipment for the strengthening of the Greek Army; and through what organisations are we doing this.

Mr. McNeil

The British Military Mission to Greece advise the Greek Government on organisation and training, and assist in the supervision of training, of the Greek Army. Since the 22nd May, 1947, when the American Aid Mission took over the handling of supplies to Greece, there have, from time to time, been sales of surplus British equipment for the Greek forces.
