HC Deb 24 July 2002 vol 389 c1318W
Mr. Sheerman

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs where he plans to instigate his first rapid reaction embassies. [71939]

Mr. MacShane

We were the first western embassy to open in Kabul. This involved extremely rapid provision of personnel, vehicles and IT communicating equipment.

It is not possible to predict where the next rapid deployment will be.
