HC Deb 17 February 1920 vol 125 c728W
Mr. INSKIP

asked the Secretary of State for War what information he has obtained as to the use now being made by the military authorities of the White City site at Bristol: whether any part of it has yet been handed over to the Disposal Board; and whether, in view of the very great demand by ex-service men for allotments, he will take steps to hand over the whole site to the Disposal Board forthwith?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

A portion of the site referred to is still being used as a Supply Depôt, and this cannot be vacated until a fresh site can be found for the purpose. The portion which is no longer required is about to be handed over to the Disposal Board, who will be in a position to deal with it as soon as certain arrangements which are being made with the owners of the property have been completed. The owners' proposals, which were being awaited, have now been received and the matter is being expedited as much as possible.
