HC Deb 05 April 1965 vol 710 c2W
43. Mr. Buck

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what steps he proposes to take to enable reputable organisations to use any land, without charge, when this can be done without interference with the use of the land by Army units.

Mr. Reynolds

My right hon. Friend is not considering any change of the existing arrangements. These provide for some use of Army land, without charge, by boy scouts, girl guides and similar youth organisations. In other cases a reasonable charge is made taking account of the nature of the use, the extent to which additional management costs fall on the Ministry, and other relevant factors.
