HC Deb 19 December 1956 vol 562 cc196-7W
162. Sir G. Lloyd

asked the Secretary of State for War the total value at 30th October, 1956, or other near convenient date, placed upon the whole of the buildings, stores, equipment, and accommodation committed by Her Majesty's Government to the care of the Suez Contractors Company; and by how much this figure had been depreciated since the day when the company took charge.

Mr. Hare

The estimated value of buildings was about £2 million and that of stores between £40 million and £50 million. There had been no significant variation since the Suez Contractors took over.
