Mr. Neil Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what information he has as to how many acres of agricultural land available for letting are owned by each county council in England and Wales.
Mrs. FennerI have been asked to reply.
I have no information on the total area of agricultural land available for letting by county councils. Information is, however, available on the amount of land held for statutory smallholdings and this is given in the annual reports on smallholdings in England and Wales, copies of which are in the Library.
