HC Deb 16 November 1950 vol 480 c204W
Mr. Gammans

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will make a statement on the formation of the new anti-bandit force, to be known as the Malayan Scouts.

Mr. Strachey

The Malayan Scouts are a special volunteer force which will be used in anti-terrorist operations in Malaya. It is not in the public interest to enlarge on the employment of this unit.
