HC Deb 03 June 1965 vol 713 cc264-5W
Mr. William Yates

asked the Secretary of State for Defence when he will announce his decision on the release of the agricultural land at Royal Air Force Station, High Ercall, still in his possession; whether he intends to offer this land to the original owners; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Millan

This land will be sold as soon as possible, some of it by public auction and some to former owners. Of the eight of these, four are interested in repurchasing their previous holdings and will be given the opportunity of doing so, two are not interested and the other two have died and have no successors entitled to be treated as former owners.
