Overseas Establishments

9.

General Sir George Jeffreys
asked the Secretary of State for War what British troops, military establishments and military offices still remain in Italy, Greece and North Africa respectively.

Mr. J. Freeman
It would not be in accordance with recent practice to give this information.

Sir G. Jeffreys
Is it to be understood that there is still a state of war in Italy or in Greece, and cannot any information be given as to the British troops which it is thought necessary to keep there?

Mr. Freeman
In the case of Italy, yes, Sir.
