HC Deb 02 July 1947 vol 439 c149W
2. Mr. Astor

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty if he will alter his decision to make Princes Golf Course, Sandwich, into a rifle range and adopt instead, for this purpose, an open site opposite the Royal Marine Signal School. near Martin Mill.

Mr. Walter Edwards

The proposal by the Admiralty to provide a rifle range on Princes Golf Course, Sandwich, is at present under examination by the Inter-Departmental Committee on Services Land Requirements and no decision has yet been taken in this matter. The hon. and gallant Member's suggestion of an alternative site will be brought to the notice of the Committee.
