Married Quarters, Schools and Hospitals

HC Deb 10 December 1974 vol 883 cc94-5W

Mr. Goodhew

asked the Secretary of State for Defence how much of the proposed savings of some £4,700 million planned over the next 10 years arise out of anticipated cuts in the cost of providing for the Armed Forces married quarters, schools and hospitals, respectively.

Mr. William Rodgers

Until the effects of the defence review upon future deployment plans have been fully assessed, the full implications for Service married quarters, schools and hospitals cannot be determined and quantified in detail.
