HC Deb 17 September 2004 vol 424 c1889W
Bob Russell

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the establishment of super garrisons. [187991]

Mr. Ingram

We intend to enhance operational capability and value for money in a number of ways, including through our strategy for the Defence Estate. This envisages concentrating units into fewer, larger sites. In the case of the Army, such sites have been referred to informally as "super garrisons". No decisions, however, have yet been taken on their establishment or possible location.
