88. Mr. Awbery

asked the Minister of Works what tenant is now in occupation of Redford Collegiate School, Bristol; why these premises have not been derequisitioned; for what purpose he is still holding them; and when he proposes to restore them to their owners.

Mr. Stokes

Bristol Corporation, who are the owners, are in occupation of Redford Collegiate School, Bristol, and the premises are being used as a permanent teachers training college. My Department are negotiating with the Corporation on the payment to be made for improvements effected to the property. As soon as these negotiations are complete the premises will be derequisitioned.
