It is proposed to establish a Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve School at the Civil Airport, Portsmouth. The proposal has the approval of the municipal authority, and technical details are in process of being settled.

Mr. Beaumont

Has my right hon. Friend received any information from the airport that this proposal will in any way conflict with vital naval interests?

Sir K. Wood

I have not received any such information.
