HC Deb 16 February 1893 vol 8 c1581
MR. HOZIER (Lanarkshire, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether, having regard to the fact that there is a double Military Depôt at Hamilton, where the barrack accommodation is understood to be unsatisfactory, he could see his way to transfer one of these depots to Lanark?

*MR. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

There are no adequate barracks at Lanark for a depôt, and for many reasons there are advantages in having the double depôt at Hamilton, where it is expected that certain inconveniences in the accommodation will be speedily overcome.
