HC Deb 01 April 1947 vol 435 c277W
34. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for War the number of cases of venereal disease among British troops in this country reported and treated during the past 12 months; and, approximately, what percentage this represents.

Mr. Bellenger

The number of cases reported and treated amongst British troops in the United Kingdom during 1946 was 3.3 per cent. of the total strength. It would not be in accordance with practice to give the strengths on which this is based.
