Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Theresa Villiers and Jeremy Quin

Monday 20th September 2021 Commons Chamber

[Theresa Villiers (Chipping Barnet) (Con)]

T7. My constituents hold the armed services in the highest regard, so there was some serious dismay when the Army reserve centre in Chipping Barnet appeared on a list of sites for potential housing development in the emerging local plan. Will the Minister give me the strongest assurances that the Territorial Army centre will stay in operational use for the foreseeable future?

[The Minister for Defence Procurement (Jeremy Quin)]

I am pleased to be able to confirm to my right hon. Friend that the High Barnet Army reserve centre has a continuing defence use and there are currently no plans for its sale.
