The Army and RAF Lyneham

Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 January 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on The Army and RAF Lyneham.
May I correct the hon. Gentleman slightly? I do not mean to intervene on him too often and am most grateful to him for being so generous with his time. He is wrong, because if 2,000 or 3,000 soldiers and their families were to move into the area, it would exactly replicate the RAF personnel who are leaving and would indeed plug the economic gap that he has described. If we got a reasonable number of soldiers in there, it would be precisely what we want for the local economy.
