HC Deb 17 July 1946 vol 425 c197W
33. Major Mott-Radclyffe

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air whether his Department has taken any steps to drequisition the former R.A.F. landing ground at Winkfield, Berkshire, to enable the area to be used for agricultural purposes.

Mr. de Freitas

We were able to de-requisition a part of this landing ground last November. We now know that the rest of it can be released and about six weeks ago we made it available for unrestricted agricultural use in advance of the actual de-requisitioning.
