HC Deb 12 May 1902 vol 107 c1347
THE MARQUESS OF HAMILTON (Londonderry)

To ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will state when the War Office purposes to proceed with the erection of the intended new barracks for the garrison artillery at Buncrana; and is there any intention to provide a deep-water pier in Lough Swilly for the purpose of landing troops in case of emergency to garrison the new forts erected there, should the means of doing so by land be cut off.

(Answer.) Difficulties have arisen in connection with the purchase of land for the barracks, and negotiations are still in progress. The question of providing a deep-water pier in Lough Swilly is under consideration.—(War Office.)
