asked the Minister of Supply if he is aware that the Arab Legion possesses 200 jeeps in first class working condition which have been supplied by the British Stores Disposal Mission; and whether he will explain why these were not made available to British Forces.

No. No jeep has been supplied by the British Stores Disposal Mission to the Arab Legion. In answer to the second part of the Question, all stores handled by the Mission have already been declared by the British Forces as surplus to their needs.
