§ Mr. Shersbyasked the Secretary of State for Defence what was the extent of the error made by the Property Services Agency in the July 1985 estimate given to his Department of the value of Kneller Hall, Twickenham; and if he will now publish in the Official Report the correct figures in tabular form.
§ Mr. LeeIn estimating the disposal value of Kneller Hall the Property Services Agency overstated the value by £2.3 million because it had included the disposal value of the associated married quarters and mistakenly told the Ministry of Defence that the new figure was for the Kneller Hall site excluding married quarters.
The disposal value of Kneller Hall is currently being reassessed as part of the wider reappraisal of the options for training service musicians announced by my noble Friend the Minister of State for Defence Support in another place on 12 February 1986.
