HC Deb 23 May 1995 vol 260 cc502-3W
Dr. David Clark

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what is the estimated total cost of accommodation at the proposed tri-service hospital at Haslar. [25599]

Mr. Soames

Existing single accommodation will be made available for the staff of the Royal hospital, Haslar. Although some refurbishment may be necessary, the cost of this work is as yet unquantified. Estimates for the requirement of additional married quarters, which will be met in the short term by hiring property or payment of excess rent allowance, are not yet available, although these costs will be partially offset by savings at current locations.
