HC Deb 08 January 2001 vol 360 c353W
Mr. Harvey

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what restrictions prevent(a) wives and (b) children accompanying British servicemen posted overseas from (i) moving freely and (ii) crossing borders, without the permission of the serviceman or military authorities; and what steps are taken to explain the restrictions to those to whom they apply. [144165]

Mr. Spellar

There are no restrictions placed on spouses or dependants who accompany Service personnel overseas that would prevent them from moving freely or crossing borders.
