HC Deb 12 March 1946 vol 420 c193W
Major C. Poole

asked the Secretary of State for War whether Regular soldiers stationed in Italy who desire to spend their 28 days' Victory leave in this country will be granted transport facilities to enable them to do so.

Mr. Lawson

I regret that in view of the transport situation Regular soldiers stationed in Italy cannot be permitted to make a special journey to the United Kingdom in order to take their special End of War Leave. It must be added on to L.I.A.P. or any other leave to this country which may be granted.
