HC Deb 18 November 1952 vol 507 c136W
54. Mr. R. Harris

asked the Secretary of State for War if the backland immediately adjoining the factory premises of Macfarlane Lang and Company, at Osterley, which was requisitioned in 1942 can now be de-requisitioned, in view of the fact that during 1952 the land has been unused, except for the storage for three weeks of some equipment connected with the Royal Tournament.

Mr. Head

No. This site is a Command Ordnance Depot. As the re-armament programme progresses covered accommodation of this type will be badly needed.
