Mr. More

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what compensation has been paid to representatives of former owners of areas of the former Admiralty depot at Ditton Priors, Shropshire, for their expenses in the negotiations terminated by him in January 1967.

Mr. Reynolds

This is one of the matters which will be the subject of inquiries in the proceedings which Lord Boyne has instituted.

Mr. More

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what payment has been made to the Salop County Council for the wear and tear and damage by ammunition lorries to the roads serving the former Admiralty depot at Ditton Priors, Shropshire.

Mr. Reynolds

The United States authorities have agreed that any such damage will be made good at their expense. The amount will be assessed when the move of ammunition into Ditton Priors has been completed.
