HC Deb 27 November 1972 vol 847 c38W
Dame Joan Vickers

asked the Minister of State for Defence if he will give a progress report in regard to the new buildings in the proximity of H.M.S. "Drake", Devonport.

Mr. Ian Gilmour

A new block for male junior ratings was opened in July this year. The new WRNS block will be completed in about April, 1973, having been delayed by the building trades dispute. A design and construct contract has been let for the sleeping blocks which are expected to be completed in the second half of 1974.
