HC Deb 03 August 1961 vol 645 c236W
Mr. B. Harrison

asked the Minister of Defence whether he will re-issue Annex 1, Tables 1 and 2 of the Report on Defence, 1961, modified in the light of recent recruitment figures including and excluding boys.

Mr. Watkinson

There are inevitably short-term fluctuations in figures of strengths, and I do not consider it would be useful at this stage to issue a revised estimate of strength as at 1st April, 1962.
