Reviewing the general policy of 'the Royal Air Force, Lord Swinton refers to the satisfactory progress made during the past year: Apart from an addition: uf 27 arst-line aircraft to the Fleet Air Arm, the formation of new units will be con- fined to increases in the Metro- politan strength of the force./

A fligh of aircraft from Egypt was also dispatched to Kenya, to co-operate with the local military forces in preventing possible in- cursions of armed bands and to be, available to deal with the re- fugee problem, should this arise.

Since that date, both flights have actively co-operated with the local military forces but no note- worthy incidents have occurred.

In the late summer. and subse- quently, when the general inter- national situation had shown signs at deterioration, his Majesty's Gov- ernment had no option but to dis- patch substantial air reinforce- ments from England to the Medi- terranean and North-east African
