HC Deb 16 June 1998 vol 314 c161W
Mr. Maclean

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what(a) stores and (b) equipment from the emergency food stockpile remain. [45701]

Mr. Rooker

No stores or equipment from the emergency food stockpile remain.

Mr. Maclean

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how many buildings used for the emergency food stockpile remain in Government ownership. [45702]

Mr. Rooker

Fourteen of the freehold sites which were used to store the emergency food stockpile remain in Government ownership and one leasehold site remains with the Government. All are subject to disposal action, although in some cases this is complicated by matters such as local authority planning, rights of way or the need to clear contamination.
