Byron Davies – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Ministry of Defence

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Byron Davies on 2016-09-06.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his policy is on the future of volunteer gliding schools in Wales.

Mark Lancaster

I am fully supportive of Air Cadets having access to opportunities for gliding. To achieve this we require a laydown of Volunteer Gliding Squadrons that meet the needs of all of our Cadets.

However, we continue to consider if there are viable site options in Wales which can be explored further, and I am due to meet with my hon. Friend shortly to discuss this matter.
