Proceeding contribution from Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 April 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Defence in the UK.


Defence in the UK

I accept what the Minister is saying, but may I ask for a degree of flexibility in budgets? I accept that some RAF stations will close over the next 15 or years. There is little point in investing in SLAM—single living accommodation modernisation—for those stations, but if budgets were flexible enough, existing accommodation could be upgraded slightly to meet the purposes of the next 15 or 20 years.
