HC Deb 18 May 1998 vol 312 c262W
Mr. Key

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many man training days per year are spent on training on private land; and what would be the cost to his Department if charges were raised at the current rate of £1.50 per man day. [41885]

Mr. George Robertson

The three Services spend some 900,000 man training days per year on private land in the United Kingdom.

If charges were raised for this training, at the current rate of £1.50 per man per day, the cost for a year would be approximately £1.35 million.
