HC Deb 05 February 1958 vol 581 c181W
84. Mr. Elwyn Jones

asked the Secretary of State for War what courses of instruction are being given in the Army on the texts of the Geneva Conventions, 1949.

Mr. Soames

Lectures on this subject are included in the curricula of the Imperial Defence College and the Army Staff College, and it is laid down that periods of instruction in the text of the Conventions should form part of all unit training programmes. The Director of Army Legal Services has recently undertaken a series of lectures for officers in home commands and in Germany.
