HC Deb 24 November 1965 vol 721 c55W
13. Mr. William Yates

asked the Secretary of State for Defence in view of the letter of the Minister for Defence for the Royal Air Force announcing the withdrawal of the Royal Air Force from land at High Ercall earlier this year, when he has arranged for the sale to take place; and whether the previous owners of the land will have the first refusal.

Mr. Reynolds

A public sale of most of the land will be held in the spring. The previous owners of the agricultural land will be given first refusal.
