To ask Her Majesty's Government further to the Written Answer by Baroness Taylor of Bolton on 9 December 2009 (WA 127), how many United Kingdom service personnel died during the period 1919 to 31 August 1921; and what details the Commonwealth War Graves Commission hold about such servicemen. [HL2490]

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) commemorates 34,610 UK service personnel who died from 1 January 1919 to 31 August 1921. This figure includes a small number of Commonwealth (then Imperial) Service personnel who, although classed as colonial troops, were not from one of the five major contributing countries (Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand and South Africa) and were not counted separately.

The details held by the CWGC can include the service person's name, rank, regiment/service, date of death, service number and place of commemoration. In some cases, details can also include the service person's age and their family's details. The details of a service person commemorated by the CWGC are available on the CWGC's debt of honour register via the CWGC's website.
