§ 2. Mr. Juddasked the Minister of State for Defence whether he will make a progress report on Government action following publication of findings of the Nugent Committee on the release of Service land.
§ Mr. Ian GilmourAs announced in the explanatory memorandum on the Report of the Defence Lands Committee (Grind. 5364) we have allowed a period of time for public comment and discussion on the report's recommendation. We have already received a substantial number of representations which will, of course, be taken carefully into account before final decisions are made. We hope to make an announcement later this year.
