HC Deb 08 February 1915 vol 69 cc241-2
68. Lord C. BERESFORD

asked the Under-Secretary for War whether the huts built for the recruits of Lord Kitchener's Army at Portsmouth are watertight; and, if not, will he take steps to ensure that these huts are immediately made habit able for the men?

Mr. TENNANT

I find on inquiry that a few huts at Portsmouth developed leaks. These were stopped at once, and no huts are now leaking.
