HC Deb 30 July 1907 vol 179 c752
*Captain FABER (Hampshire, Andover)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will state what was the cost of Mooltan block of barracks lately erected at Tidworth; and how much it is proposed to spend on altering this block into a hospital.

MR. HALDANE

Approximately the cost of these barracks has been about £120,000. The amount allotted for the alterations for hospital purposes is £30,000.

CAPTAIN FABER

Would it not have been better to build a new hospital?

MR. HALDANE

said he did not think so. These blocks were not wanted.
