I am unable to give precise details on that but the noble Lord should rest assured that I shall be keeping a watchful eye.

My Lords, the support for this measure by this House is particularly welcome and encouraging. Soldiers from Hong Kong are different from others in many ways. They have risked their lives to fight for this country for well over 100 years. I too congratulate the Minister on having organised what has been announced.
