§ Jeremy CorbynTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what544W recent examination he has made of the sale of capital assets by the London borough of Islington; and if he will make a statement. [5363]
§ Dr. WhiteheadI have made no such examination.
Asset disposals are a matter for the authority. I would normally only become involved if any authority sought consent to dispose of property at less than the best consideration reasonably attainable. No such consent has been sought recently by the London borough of Islington.
