§ Sir Richard Glynasked the Secretary of State for Defence what sums now charged to the Territorial Army for accounting purposes are in respect of training areas, artillery ranges, buildings and installations which are shared with the Regular Army or with other branches of the service or with one of the cadet forces.
§ Mr. MulleyThe attribution of Army expenditure to the Territorial Army cannot be precise in all respects. It excludes the cost of training areas and artillery ranges shared with the Regular Army. It includes expenditure on Territorial Army buildings and rifle ranges, but detailed research would be needed to find the sum spent in any given year on those which may also be used to some extent by the Regular Army, other Services or the cadet forces, and I do not think that this would be profitable.
Sir Richard Glynnasked the Secretary of State for Defence what sum now charged to the Territorial Army for accounting purposes is in respect of Regular officers or other ranks seconded to or attached to the Territorial Army and who have duties outside the Territorial Army in respect of district organisations, cadet forces of all kinds or regular Army depôts.
§ Mr. MulleyDetailed research would be needed to prepare figures for any given year and I do not think that this would be profitable. In any event, the attribution of Army expenditure to the Territorial Army cannot be precise in all respects.
