§ Mrs. EwingTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list all(a) current and (b) recently disposed of MoD lands that require environmental decontamination (i) nationally and (ii) by region of the UK. [131594]
§ Dr. MoonieThe Ministry of Defence has a policy of carrying out Land Quality Assessments in order to assess the Department's potential environmental liabilities. Individual budget holders within the Department are responsible for carrying out their own Land Quality Assessments, and such detailed information on contamination, is not held centrally. I will write to the hon. Member and a copy of my letter will be placed in the Library of the House.
