§ 68. Mr. CAREWasked the Secretary of State for War if there is any probability of parishes being able to obtain disused Army huts for reading and recreation rooms, as a war memorial, at a moderate price?
§ The DEPUTY-MINISTER of MUNITIONS (Mr. Kellaway)I have been asked to answer this question. The Disposal Board cannot dispose of Army huts until they have been declared surplus by the War Office. So far very few huts have been handed to the Board for disposal. When huts are available, they will be advertised, and local authorities who might be interested will be informed. No preferential treatment with regard to price can, however, be given to anyone.
