HC Deb 09 December 1920 vol 135 cc2444-5W
Mr. A. SHORT

asked the Secretary of State for War (1) whether he can state the total number of the Army stationed or engaged in operations in territories outside of the British Empire;

(2) whether he can state without injury the number in each particular case of His Majesty's Army stationed or operating in the various territories outside of the British Empire; and also the estimated cost?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

I would refer the hon. Member to the replies given on 30th November last to questions put by the hon. Members for Wood Green (Mr. G. Locker-Lampson) and Central Hull (Lieut.-Commander Kenworthy). The only change in the numbers then given is that caused by the withdrawal of the troops from Danzig.
