§ Mr. Andrew F. Bennettasked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list in the Official Report those lands which have been added to defence land holdings since 1970 and those lands which have been released.
§ Mr. Robert C. BrownSince 31st December 1970 some 38,000 acres have been added to defence land holdings on more than 300 sites and about 33,000 acres on over 700 sites have been disposed of by the Property Services Agency on behalf of the Ministry of Defence. It is not possible to provide a list of the very large number of properties involved without disproportionate effort.
The figures of additional holdings include 32,000 acres of land and property which became vested in the Ministry of Defence under the Ministry of Aviation Supply (Dissolution) Order.
