HC Deb 09 February 1926 vol 191 cc871-2W
Colonel VAUGHAN-MORGAN

asked the Minister of Agriculture what is the total amount of the expenditure on buildings which has been made by tenants of Crown property in Regent Street within the last six years; and what is the amount of such expenditure in each case where new leases have been granted on the Crown property in Regent Street?

Mr. GUINNESS

I regret that the information asked for is not available. The Commissioners of Crown Lands, when granting new building leases in Regent Street, specify a minimum sum to be expended on the erection of suitable buildings, but it is believed that in most cases the minimum has been largely exceeded.
