HL Deb 22 July 2002 vol 638 cc27-8WA
Lord Bowness

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will detail, borough by borough, the land and property belonging to the Department of Health, or any National Health Service trust, that has been sold in any London borough south of the River Thames during the last three years. [HL5349]

Lord Hunt of Kings Heath

The Department of Health has not sold any land or property in any London borough south of the River Thames during the past three years.

Sold on Health (published May 2000), a joint report between NHS Estates and the Public Services Productivity Panel, comprehensively reviewed the planning, design, procurement, operation and disposal of the NHS estates. Its recommendations were accepted by Ministers and as a result information on NHS trust disposals began in April 2002. According to these records, no sales have been made in any London borough south of the River Thames.
