The government has submitted a draft law to the Chamber of Deputies which makes it possible for the group to start operating by 10 October. The chamber is likely to approve the proposal next month. The group will coordinate joint British-Czech military exercises, the training of officers, and English-language courses for them. The British team will operate as a military unit under joint Czech-British command. It will wear its own uniforms, maintain its arms, and be subject to British military regulations. Its expenses are to be covered from the Czech Defense Ministry's budget. Czech units are serving under British command in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosova. ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Start Your Own FREE Email List at http://www.listbot.com/links/joinlb
