HC Deb 28 May 1946 vol 423 cc165-6W
119. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Secretary of State for War what number of men in India have had their repatriation to this country held up because their places on troopships have been taken by troops detailed to attend the Victory parades

Mr. Lawson

So far as I am at present aware no troops serving in India have been prevented by the Victory contin gents from reaching this country in time for release within the periods laid down for their groups.
