Dr. Glyn

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what conclusions have been reached with regard to the rebuilding of Victoria barracks since the joint visit of the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Defence for the Armed Forces and the hon. Member for Windsor and Maidenhead, on 1 September 1988; if he will give an indication of the dates when the rebuilding will commence and finish; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Neubert

Approval to proceed with the rebuilding of Victoria barracks on the site of the old barracks at Windsor has now been given. Formal tenders will be invited shortly and it is hoped to start work on site towards the latter part of 1989. Work is expected to take about three years.
