HC Deb 13 May 1915 vol 71 c1809
53. Mr. ROBINSON

asked whether it is now the intention of the War Office to make use of the huts erected several months since at the Slwch Camp, Brecon; and, if so, what battalion is to be housed there?

Mr. TENNANT

Slwch Camp is utilised for recruits passing through Brecon Depot, of which it forms part, but it is not proposed to use either this or other depots as permanent stations for units.

Mr. ROBINSON

Is it not intended to use these huts at all, and, if not, then for what purpose have they been erected?

Mr. TENNANT

Yes. I have just informed my hon. Friend that it is proposed to use them for recruits passing through the depot of which they form a part. They are to be used only as part of the depot.
