HC Deb 04 November 1999 vol 337 c254W
Mr. Key

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how much money was received from one-off disposals in financial years 1997–98, 1998–99 and 1999–2000; and if he will estimate the amount he will raise in financial years 2000–01 and 2001–02. [96656]

Mr. Kilfoyle

The value of disposals achieved in financial years 1997–98 and 1998–99, and the amount forecast for this financial year is set out in the table. It has not been possible to differentiate between the receipts generated through large scale one-off disposals and through rolling disposals programmes for smaller value but larger volume items. Specific estimates for disposals are not available for financial years 2000–01 and 2001–02.
