HC Deb 07 May 1906 vol 156 c961
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the officers' quarters at Fort George, Inverness-shire, are not watertight, and that the casemates in which the Ross-shire Militia and other men are quartered are damp and otherwise unsatisfactory; and will he call for a Report on the subject.

MR. HALDANE

The General Officer Commanding-in-Chief Scottish Command reports that he personally inspected Fort George a week ago and that no complaints were made in regard to the officers' quarters. As regards the casemates he considers them, qua casemates, extremely good and certainly not damp.

MR. WEIR

asked the right hon. Gentleman to inquire further.

MR. HALDANE

I have called for a Report. If the hon. Member desires further information I will try and get it.
