HC Deb 16 December 1949 vol 470 c369W
Mr. F. Maclean

asked the Secretary of State for War how many properties throughout the United Kingdom are still requisitioned by his Department; and what is the number and amount of outstanding claims.

Mr. Shinwell

On 30th September, 1949, my Department held 445 buildings in the United Kingdom on requisition. It is not possible to state the number and amount of outstanding claims relating to buildings without a disproportionate amount of work.
