Would I prefer that the NTC was in the Highland, absolutely. What's required? Central funding for the purchase and build of the Centre in a preferred location and a guaranteed 10+ funding package to meet the staff and running costs, including day to day enquiries and deeper research, irrespective of visitor income. Is that going to happen? Unfortunately not IMO and experience.
Just heard that both Fort George and Redford Barracks in Edinburgh are to be disposed of by the MOD. Very surprised by both. It will be interesting to see how the Tattoo deals with the loss of RCB which is where they put up all the performers.
