HC Deb 08 October 1946 vol 427 cc12-3W
108. Mr. Warbey

asked the Secretary of State for War how many Polish soldiers have enrolled to date in the Polish Resettlement Corps.

Mr. Bellenger

Up to 5th October, 17,480, which represents a high proportion of those to whom offers have so far been made.

109. Mr. Warbey

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will give an assurance that all Polish units in the British Army have now been disbanded.

Mr. Bellenger

Not yet, Sir. The process of enlisting members of the Polish forces under British command into the Polish Resettlement Corps (an unarmed corps) began on 11th September, 1946. This process is proceeding and it is hoped that it may be completed during the early months of next year.
