I am going to assume that, while some applause was no doubt in respect of his unquestioned oratorical skills, some of it was also in direct support of his point which, as I understand it, was that it is inappropriate that the committee should have made a recommendation in respect of the closure of bases and inappropriate for the committee to have put any particular military installation forward as an example to illustrate its recommendation.
