HC Deb 05 April 1938 vol 334 c203W
Mr. Shinwell

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in connection with the recent acquisition of land in Wiltshire and the proposed further purchase of adjoining land, he has considered the representations from an approved society that such acquisition, and particularly the use of such land for troops, will seriously interfere with the carrying on of their convalescent home, which is being used for female members including insured persons; and what course does he propose to take in the matter?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

I anticipate that the society will not have any cause for complaint, but if they should, they can notify the local military authorities, who would certainly treat with the utmost consideration any representations the society may make.
