HC Deb 12 May 1967 vol 746 c311W
Sir Tufton Beamish

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what has been the cost to date of training South Vietnamese in jungle warfare in Malaysia; what was the cost in 1966; how many men have completed their courses; and if he will now offer to give such help on a larger scale since United Kingdom military requirements in the area are greatly reduced.

Mr. Healey

About £150,000, since 1961; £32,500 in 1966–67; 1,238; we have no plans at present to increase their training.
