HC Deb 04 February 1959 vol 599 c99W
Lady Megan Lloyd George

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state the basis on which the rent of Government factories in Development Areas is fixed.

Sir D. Eccles

As I said on Thursday last, rents are fixed on the basis of current market values, but this does not mean that the Government expects or receives a full return on the capital invested.
