Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Defence in the UK.
Defence in the UK
I am grateful for the Minister's kind words about the people of Wootton Bassett, which is in my constituency. Some 2,000 of them turned out last Saturday for the tragic return of three bodies. The Minister will understand that the people of Wootton Bassett are deeply concerned about the future of RAF Lyneham, which is just down the road from them. We are awaiting an announcement on that, following consideration of Project Belvedere. Can the Minister give us some idea of when that announcement might be made?
