§ Mr. W. R. SMITHasked the Secretary of State for War whether it is his intention to remove the present temporary huts for soldiers on Wimbledon Common and erect permanent brick and stone structures in place thereof; and, if it is not his intention, when it is proposed to vacate possession and remove the huts so that the public may enjoy the unrestricted use of the common to which they are entitled?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThere is no intention of erecting permanent structures on Wimbledon Common for military purposes. The existing temporary hutting will be required for some considerable time, and I regret that it is not possible at present to say when the hutment camp will be closed.
