HC Deb 18 July 1939 vol 350 cc209-10W
Mrs. Adamson

asked the Minister of Health whether he has sanctioned the acquisition by the Surrey County Council of an acre of land fronting the Pilgrim's Way, Chaldon, for £340; for what purpose had the land previously been used, and what was its rateable value previous to acquisition?

Miss Horsbrugh

No, Sir; my right hon. Friend's sanction was not required. I am informed that the price paid was £300 and that the land was agricultural and, therefore, derated.
