§ Mr. Laurence RobertsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence pursuant to the written statement of 20 April 2004,Official Report, column 11 WS, on Joint Medal Office, how many personnel he expects will move 993W to RAF Innsworth from other bases following the creation of the Joint Medal Office on that site; and if he will make a statement. [168816]
§ Mr. Caplin[holding answer 26 April 2004]: At this time it is not possible to say how many personnel will move to the Joint Medal Office at RAF Innsworth. Personnel at the sites affected are currently being asked to complete a preference proforma to assess how many would wish to transfer. This exercise should be completed by July, after which Planning Assumptions can be finalised.
I intend to keep the House and appropriate constituency members informed of progress.
