Mr. Cox: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many British service personnel are involved in landmine destruction,
indicating the countries in which they are deployed. [132701]
Mr. Spellar: British Service personnel are not currently involved in landmine destruction per se. But they do provide technical
expertise, management and specialist skills to support mine action programmes worldwide. As at 1 July, personnel were deployed as
follows: As Senior Technical Adviser to the UN Mine Action Co-ordination Centre in Kosovo. As Senior Technical Adviser to the UN
Mine Action Centre in Bosnia. As a Staff Officer within the Humanitarian Demining Training Centre at the US Army's Engineer School.
As Head of Technical Unit at the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining.
Additionally, in Bosnia, as part of the Stabilisation Force (SFOR), UK military personnel are involved in the co-ordination and
monitoring of mine clearance; emergency disposal of mines and unexploded ordnance as required; and mine awareness training. Similar
work is undertaken in Kosovo. We also maintain an Explosive Ordnance Disposal detachment in the Falkland Islands.
