To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to his answer of 20 January,Official Report, column 824, if he will provide details of the special United Nations training programme for personnel in Bosnia, including what personnel provide this training, where the training is carried out, what is the source of funding for it, how long is the training and any other relevant information.

Mr. Hanley

The training package for personnel warned off for deployment to the former Yugoslavia consists of a 12-day special-to-mission package. 'The training is carried out by specialist training advisory teams at the Army's combined arms training centre at Warminster and, for Germany-based units, at Sennelager. Overall training costs are borne mainly by the Defence budget apart from some minor incidental costs which the Foreign and Commonwealth Office cover.
