HC Deb 26 January 1949 vol 460 c149W
Mr. Piratin

asked the Secretary of State for War what is the number and rank of the British soldiers forming the British Military Mission in Greece; and what is the annual cost of maintaining this Force.

Mr. Shinwell

It is not the practice to disclose the number of British troops in any particular area. As regards the last part of the Question, I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given today by my right hon. Friend the Minister of Defence to the hon. Member for West Fife (Mr. Gallacher).
