§ Sir Antony Buckasked the Secretary of State for Defence whether there have been any recent developments concerning the Gurkha field force in Hong Kong.
§ Mr. StanleyI am glad to announce today, on the 10th anniversary of the disbanding of the 48 Gurkha Infantry Brigade, that the Gurkha field force in Hong Kong is to be renamed the 48 Gurkha Infantry Brigade. The renaming will restore the distinguished designation of 48 Gurkha Infantry Brigade to the Army's order of battle.
