HC Deb 14 June 1990 vol 174 cc327-8W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list the outside management consultants used by his Department to rationalise the property assets of the British Army since 1979.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

The Ministry of Defence—and, before 1988, the Property Services Agency—has employed a great many outside management consultants to assist with the rationalisation of property assets across all three services and the procurement executive. No central record is maintained of the use made of consultants, however, and it is not possible to provide this information retrospectively.
