HC Deb 18 December 1945 vol 417 c1263W
Captain C. Smith

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will make a statement on the progress of the Army education scheme in B.A.O.R. since VE-Day.

Mr. Lawson

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply given on 30th October to a Question by the hon. and gallant Member for Woodbridge (Lieut.-Colonel Hare). I have asked for a full report on the present extent to which the Army Education Scheme is being operated in B.A.O.R. and will write to my hon. and gallant Friend when it is received.

Mr. Lipson

asked the Secretary of State for War why there have not been lectures or education facilities of any kind for men in A Troop, 5th Surrey Regiment, for nearly four months; and will he arrange for them to be provided.

Mr. Lawson

I am inquiring into this matter and will write to the hon. Member.
