I have been advised by the military authorities that to collate the figures requested by the Deputy would require a medical officer or officers to examine the medical files of all Defence Force personnel that travelled to malaria prone areas within the period of time specified.
Due to the scope of the request and the demands it would place on already limited resources, I regret that it is not possible to provide the information requested by the Deputy.
