§ Mr. Croninasked the Secretary of State for War if he will arrange for more personnel of the Far East Land Forces to obtain United Kingdom leave during their tour of duty.
§ Mr. ProfumoI fully recognise the importance of home leave for troops stationed in the Far East, but I regret that the heavy costs involved prevent my extending the existing arrangements, which generally allow one visit every two years for married men whose families are not with them.
