HC Deb 03 August 1966 vol 733 c104W
58. Mr. Gwilym Roberts

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what steps are being taken to prepare British airfields to receive North Atlantic Treaty Organisation squadrons from France.

Mr. Healey

Certain airfields which are no longer in active use are being retained in the ownership of the Ministry of Defence in case they are needed to accommodate R.A.F. or allied squadrons redeployed from overseas.
