HC Deb 18 May 1994 vol 243 cc498-9W
Ms Eagle

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what costs were incurred in moving the Directorate of Contracts from Liverpool and Harrogate to Huntingdon.

Mr. Aitken

Collocation of the related staff of the Directorate of Contracts at RAF Brampton and RAF Wyton will improve the efficiency with which the RAF's support management business is handled and follows a detailed investment appraisal. The Harrogate contracts posts are due to transfer in 1995 and the majority of the Liverpool posts in the RAF's Support Management Group in 1996. The costs incurred in these moves can be assessed only when the number of staff moving is known.
