HC Deb 12 July 1995 vol 263 c671W
Mr. Sykes

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if Gurkas will continue to be stationed in Brunei; and if he will make a statement. [34403]

Mr. Soames

On 19 June 1995, the Prime Minister and the Sultan of Brunei Darussalam signed an agreement that will extend the stationing of a Gurkha battalion in the Sultanate for a further five years from 29 September 1998. This reflects the close defence relations between our two countries.
