HC Deb 12 March 1895 vol 31 c883
LORD STANLEY (Lancashire, S.E., Westhoughton)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War when the drains of Chelsea Barracks, Wellington Barracks, St. George's Barracks, and Kensington Palace Barracks were last inspected, by whom, and what was the inspector's report in each case?

MR. WOODALL

Apart from the ordinary quarterly barrack inspections, when defects are reported and remedied, no special report on the drains of the barracks referred to has been necessary, as nothing has occurred to arouse suspicion as to their sanitary condition.

MR. J. H. C. HOZIER (Lanarkshire, S.)

Has the smoke test been applied?

MR. WOODALL

I cannot say.
