HC Deb 11 February 1895 vol 30 cc451-2
MR. J. ROSS (Londonderry)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, what is the cause of the continued delay in commencing the building of the new barracks at Londonderry?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (MR. CAMPBELL BANNERMAN,) Stirling

As the hon. Member was informed at the end of last Session, there are difficulties in acquiring the necessary site, which can only be overcome by an Act of Parliament. It was not practicable then to carry through the necessary Bill; but one will be introduced very shortly, and I hope the hon. Member will give us his assistance in passing it quickly through the House.
