Lord Pearson of Rannoch Excerpts

Wednesday 14th December 2011 Lords Chamber

[Lord Wallace of Saltaire]

That is a very good question, and I will of course have to write to the noble Baroness about that. I do not have the accurate, detailed information.

[Lord Pearson of Rannoch]

My Lords—

[Lord Brooke of Sutton Mandeville]

My Lords, may I remark to my noble friend that my noble friend Lady Sharples asked a question about the Wellington barracks when we were in opposition? It has clearly therefore appeared on the screen of the Ministry of Defence. If the first Duke of Wellington was alive today, I shudder to think what he would have said if it had disappeared from the screen during his lifetime.
