HC Deb 18 February 1947 vol 433 c956
10. Mr. Driberg

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware of the unsatisfactory conditions prevailing in the camp at Long Marston, near Stratfordon-Avon, the supply of water for washing and fuel for heating being particularly inadequate; and if he will cause these conditions to be investigated thoroughly and improved.

Mr. J. Freeman

Some time ago we thought that it would be possible to abandon this camp, but it is still needed. Consequently considerable improvements that were necessary were put in hand and are still being carried out, particularly in connection with the water supply. We have had no complaints of unreasonable shortage of fuel for heating though naturally the greatest economy is being exercised at present.
