HC Deb 16 November 1950 vol 480 c1879
30. Mr. Crouch

asked the Minister of Health when his Department sold Alcester House; and what was the price.

Mr. Bevan

I gave consent on 1st August to the sale of this property by the Dorset County Council. It has not yet been sold.

Mr. Crouch

In that case, may I ask the right hon. Gentleman why his Parliamentary Secretary told me last Monday that it was sold?

Mr. Bevan

I understand from my hon. Friend that he did not make that statement.
