§ Miss McIntoshTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence when empty Defence Housing Executive accommodation in Leeming will be placed on the market; and if he will make a statement. [129096]
§ Dr. MoonieTwenty empty properties in Leeming Village were handed back to the owners, Annington Homes Ltd. (AHL), on 26 June. It is, of course, for the owners to decide how to dispose of these properties but they are likely to be sold privately through a nominated agent. It is probable that 10 of the remaining properties in Leeming will be part of a future release but they are currently subject to planning and approval processes and a number of them are occupied.
