§ 35. Mr. J. HUDSONasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, the price at which the houses at Irlam, near Manchester, which were originally erected by the Munitions Department, and afterwards transferred to His Majesty's Office of Works, were sold; and whether any Clause was inserted in the agreement to sell restricting the rents to be charged in respect of these houses?
§ Captain HACKING (for The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS)The sale price cannot be exactly stated, as the estate was one of a number sold at the same time as one transaction. The approximate price may be put at £40,500. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative.
