HC Deb 27 November 1919 vol 121 c1918W
Lieut.-Colonel WEIGALL

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office for what purpose 44, Portman Square is still in military occupation; how many men are now accommodated in the house; whether an officer is in residence and responsible for discipline and administration; and, if not, whether immediate steps can be taken in order that discipline may be maintained?

Mr. FORSTER

The premises in question are occupied by seventy-three Military Police. No officer resides there, but one attends daily and is responsible for discipline and administration. Visits are also paid by him at uncertain hours. I am informed that discipline is maintained, and I am not aware that any further steps as suggested are called for; but if my hon. and gallant Friend has any complaints I will have them investigated immediately if particulars are furnished.
