HC Deb 22 January 1957 vol 563 cc12-3W
93. Mr. Wigg

asked the Secretary of State for War what charges have fallen on his Department's Estimates for the current financial year in respect of supplies and services made available to French forces during and preceding the Middle Eastern operations; and what arrangements have been made for recovery.

Mr. Hare

The value of supplies and services provided for the French forces is about £80,000. The extra cost of accommodation is still being worked out. The French authorities have agreed to refund our costs.
