HC Deb 13 February 1946 vol 419 c113W
Mr. Osborne

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air if he is aware that action has not yet been taken, in accordance with his letter of 3rd December, to derequisition Brook's Farm, North Somercotes, though a letter from his Department dated 16th November then apologised for delay; and if he will take immediate steps to see that this farm is derequisitioned.

Mr. Strachey

We have issued instructions for the 22½ acres of Brook's Farm to be released now that the general survey of Donna Nook airfield, about which I wrote to the hon. Member on 3rd December, has been completed. The Air Ministry letter of 16th November was related to the possibility, then under consideration, of our buying this land.
