asked the Secretary of State for War whether he can give an assurance that the policy of demolishing pillboxes and fortified points, particularly along our coasts, has now been discontinued.
I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given him on 14th February.
Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that I got no proper answer? Will he, at any rate, say whether the cost of this disarmament will be included in the re-armament bill?
I can assure the hon. Member that no pillboxes or other defences of military value are being demolished.
Will the right hon. Gentleman please look into this again, because it necessitates only a motor drive through any part of England to discover that pillboxes are being demolished at river crossings and railway crossings? It is a waste of labour, if nothing else.
