As regards the publication of the despatch on these operations, I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the oral reply on 23rd June given by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for India, and as regards the award of decorations, I would refer to my written answer on the same date to the hon. and gallant Member for Hexham (Captain Brown).
