Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of the time needed (a) to repair the boiler at Wellington Barracks and (b) for wider facilities upgrades at that barracks.
The fault with the boiler at Wellington Barracks was identified on 23 January and fixed on 26 January. Temporary portable heaters were provided on 24 January to affected areas.
No major facilities upgrades are planned at this time. A continuous maintenance programme at Wellington Barracks ensures the site is statutory and mandatory compliant.
