§ Mr. HareI regret that there has been delay in passing information to the family of this soldier. This is because we have not yet received full details from Singapore. I express my sympathy with the relatives of Corporal Giles and assure my hon. and learned Friend that I am taking all practical steps to speed up the passing of information in future cases.
