asked Her Majesty's Government:

What plans they have to conduct a business review of the disposals process carried out by the Ministry of Defence. [HL4166]

Lord Bach

A business review of the disposals process is to be carried out by the Ministry of Defence. The review will commence shortly and complete in the autumn.

The aim of the review is to examine the function, operation, funding and organisation of the disposals process, to identify the key objectives, and to determine whether the current arrangements are most appropriate for future needs.

The review team will consult with a range of stakeholders during the course of the review, including MOD and single service sponsors, TUs, other government departments and other relevant bodies. The Ministry of Defence is interested to hear the views of other organisations or individuals who would like to make a contribution to the review. Those wishing to do so should send their contributions by 31 July 2003 to:

  • The Disposals Process Business Review Team

  • St Giles Court
  • 1–13 St Giles High Street
