§ 101. Sir W. Wakefieldasked the Minister of Works the special arrangements with the Crown Estates Commission under which his Department 263W holds 99 houses in Regent's Park terraces; and when they were last used as residential accommodation.
§ Mr. MolsonNinety-five houses are held under agreement between my Department and the Crown Estate Commission made after the war. These are determinable by either party at two quarters' notice to any Crown quarter day after the expiry of the Supplies and Services (Transitional Powers)Act, 1945. The remaining 4 houses, in York Terrace, were requisitioned from lessees of the Crown Estate Commission. The lessees interests, which were subsequently acquired by my Department, come to an end in July, 1963.
Most of the 99 houses were last used as residences between 1940 and 1942, but a few were occupied up to 1947.
