CAPTAIN FABER (Hampshire, Andover)To ask the Secretary of State for War whether the stables for the Scots Greys at Tidworth have yet been commenced; if not, will he say why; and whether be can now name a definite date for their commencement.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Haldane.) Building operations have not yet been commenced, but the work in preparing plans, specifications, and quantities is sufficiently advanced to render it possible to call for tenders in a few days time. Until the tenders are received a date cannot be fixed for the commencement of the work.
