Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 January 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Armed Forces Personnel.
Armed Forces Personnel
The hon. Gentleman made reference to the Defence Committee's report on housing. We visited Hounslow barracks, and I sympathise with some of the points that he is making. Did he also read the report's recommendations? They clearly state—I also said this earlier—that the answer to the appalling conditions at Hounslow is not just pumping money into that facility. The Ministry of Defence and, in particular, the Army, must take a strategic decision about what is needed in the capital area.
