HC Deb 01 June 1933 vol 278 cc2042-3
12. Rear-Admiral SUETER

asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the possibility that Sandhurst and Woolwich may be amalgamated so as to obtain greater co-operation between the various arms, he will consult the Secretary of State for War to see if Woolwich would be suitable for the new police college and to save expense in acquiring a new building?

Mr. HACKING

I understand that the premises of the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich are still occupied and are not at present available for disposal, but in any event the Commissioner of Police is satisfied that they would not be suitable for the purposes of the proposed police college. Negotiations are now in progress for the acquisition of a suitable building.
