HC Deb 06 November 1945 vol 415 c1228W
Mr. Chamberlain

asked the Secretary of State for War how many native troops have now been repatriated from the Middle East to Basutoland, Bechuanaland and Swaziland; and whether he has in mind the promises made to these men, their present dissatisfaction, and the imminence of their ploughing season at home.

Mr. Lawson

The information asked for in the first part of the Question is not available. I am having inquiries made and will write to my hon. Friend. As to the rest, I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given to him by my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs on 17th October last.
