HC Deb 15 December 1952 vol 509 c140W
123. Mr. A. Henderson

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Defence the extent to which British aid has recently been given to the French forces in Indo-China; and to what extent such aid is to be increased.

Mr. Birch

Some equipment has been supplied. It would not be in the public interest to give details. The House may rest assured, however, that requests for equipment made by the French Government are given the most sympathetic consideration.
