HC Deb 17 July 1968 vol 768 c211W
29. Mr. Eddie Griffiths

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what steps are being taken to reduce the number of noncombatant vehicles in the Army.

Mr. John Morris

The Army's holdings of administrative vehicles has been reduced from a total of about 116,000 in January, 1964, to about 91,000 at the beginning of this year: a reduction of 25,000 or 21 per cent. in four years. We aim to continue this process.
