HC Deb 27 July 1971 vol 822 cc60-1W
Mr. Chichester-Clark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will now list the sites formerly owned by the Land Commission which are still in his possession; what acreage each of these sites represent; whether he will indicate when each site will be sold; and whether it will be sold to public authorities or to private enterprise.

Mr. Peter Walker

The following is the list of sites:

Site Acres
Coulby Newham 805.4
The Ings, Redcar 141.7
