HC Deb 17 July 1968 vol 768 c217W
Mr. Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement about the future of the Royal Malta Artillery.

Mr. Boyden

As part of the revised rundown plan for Malta announced by my right hon. Friend the Minister without Portfolio on 13th March, 1967, the United Kingdom will retain responsibility for the Royal Malta Artillery until 30th September, 1970. The future of the force after that date is a matter for the Government of Malta.
