HC Deb 05 June 1980 vol 985 c789W
33. Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many sales have so far been arranged of prison officers surplus houses on the Isle of Wight; what is the average price obtained; and how many more properties are to be put on the market for sale.

Mr. Brittan

Two sales have been agreed and negotiations are well advanced on a further nine. 32 houses are still with local estate agents. No sale money has yet been received. It is estimated that 10 more properties may be put on the market in the next two years.
