66. Mr. Woodnutt

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if the West High Down Rocket Site in the Isle of Wight is surplus to the requirements of Her Majesty's Government; and when a formal offer to acquire all or part of the site will be made to the Isle of Wight County Council.

Less than an acre of the land is still required for Government purposes. The remainder is surplus and will be offered for sale to the Isle of Wight County Council within the next three months.
