HC Deb 21 October 1966 vol 734 c83W
Mr. Alan Lee Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he will make a statement on the future of Rainham rifle ranges; and whether he will consider releasing the land for social and industrial purposes.

Mr. Reynolds

The Rainham rifle ranges, camp and training area are used by Regular and Reserve Army units stationed in and around London, and my right hon. Friend cannot at present release this land for the purposes which my hon. Friend has in mind.
