§ 39. Mr. McMasterasked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will send to members of the corps a message of appreciation of the services, past and future, of the Royal Observer Corps in the defence of the United Kingdom.
§ Mr. Merlyn ReesMy right hon. Friend appreciates the valuable work which R.O.C. members perform for the United Kingdom Warning and Monitoring Organisation. But, although the Corps is being reduced in strength, it will continue in being and a special message does not therefore seem called for.
