The remaining 74 men
Battalion could
go in Wellington Barracks. In the buildings in Lot 88 there would be room
REG 16.9-
in one
for the
part of McGregor's Buildings
there would be room for the Battery of
Ra R.α.
This would leave the rest of Wellington Barracks for details of departmen Corps and for Garrison requirements, keeping the reception hospital as at present.
The remainder of Mr. Gregor's Buildwigs,
men and 6 Married Quarters
for 5 Serpants 176
aud Lot 74 for 4 Serpants 162 men would accommodate probably the single
new
of 3
Batteries Asiatic Artillery and of the Asiatic, Submarine Miners, giving them too cubic feet per
man.
It is very desirable however to
give up
the highly rented McGregor's buildings of possible. This might be done
if the cubic space per
man in barracks
were reduced from 1'000 to goo'm which Murray and Victoria Barracks would
case
hold
