§ Mr. BOWERMANasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office the total sum 65W paid to the City Corporation since his Department took possession of the Deptford cattle market; whether any portion of the premises has recently been released to the corporation, and to what extent; and, if so, the annual sum to be paid for the portion retained for the use of the Department?
§ Mr. GWYNNEAs regards the first part of the question, rent at the rate of £10,000 a year has been paid since August, 1914. I am not aware of any other payment. The answer to the second part is in the negative, and the third part, therefore, does not arise.
