HC Deb 27 April 1977 vol 930 c330W
Mr. George Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for Defence how many Ministry of Defence dwellings in Barns-bury Park, Islington, have been squatted upon; and what action is being taken to regain possession.

Dr. Gilbert

Seven Ministry of Defence flats in Barnsbury Park, Islington, have been occupied by squatters. The flats were recently modernised by the Property Services Agency and were occupied by the squatters before they could be allocated to Army families. The Treasury Solicitor has been requested to initiate urgent legal action to regain possession of the flats, which are needed for Army families.
