§ 41. Mr. CARTERasked the Secretary of State for War whether the present position of the Albany Street barracks is suitable; and, if not, whether, considering the need for working-class housing in that district, he will entertain the suggestion of removing these barracks further from the centre of London?
§ 40. Mr. MARLEYasked the Secretary of State for War whether it would be possible to transfer all the troops now accommodated at Albany Street barracks to 2041 other barracks within the London area and make this site available for house building and slum clearance?
§ Mr. SHAWWhile the position of the Albany Street barracks is not ideal for the purposes for which they are required it has not been possible to find suitable alternative accommodation except at prohibitive cost.
