HC Deb 19 March 1969 vol 780 c114W
Mr. Donnelly

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he will make a statement regarding the future of the air/sea rescue functions of the Royal Navy helicopters used at the Royal Naval Air Service Station, Brawdy.

Mr. Reynolds

The search and rescue flight will remain at Brawdy so long as Royal Navy flying continues there.

Mr. Donnelly

asked the Secretary of State for Defence how many married quarters are part of the Royal Naval Air Service Station, Brawdy; and what action he proposes to take to dispose of them following the closure of the station.

Mr. Reynolds

There are 87 officers and 470 ratings married quarters associated with R.N.A.S. Brawdy. No decision has yet been taken on their disposal when the naval air station closes. This will depend on, among other things, the future use of the station buildings.
