§ Mr. Ron DaviesTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list by region those Forestry Commission woodlands disposed of during each of the last three years, stating for each disposal the hectarage involved.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonI refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on 3 February 1989 at column 415 to a question from him on the same subject. A list of sales of Forestry Commission woodlands between 22 October 1984 and 21 December 1988 was placed in the Library of the House at that time. A re-ordering of that list into separate years could only be carried out at disproportionate cost.
The woodlands sold by the commission between 22 December 1988 and 31 March 1989 are as follows:
