Proceeding contribution from Adam Ingram (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 March 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Territorial Army Rebalancing.


Territorial Army Rebalancing

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his welcome. This is an unusual occasion, as I do not think anyone failed to welcome the statement either wholly in part. We must wait and see whether there are any exceptions, but hon. Members realise that there is sense in the proposals. The hon. Gentleman is right that we will establish a new medical squadron—the designation is still to be confirmed—of the 254 Divisional Medical General Support Regiment. I will write to him with more details about that and the new military provost service. According to my figures, there are no cuts or reductions in his area, which does exceptionally well out of the Ministry of Defence, and serves us extremely well in return.
