Letter to the Second Clerk from the Parliamentary
Relations and Devolution Team at the Foreign and Commonwealth
Office
QUARTERLY ESTATES
SALES RETURN
Chris Stanton wrote to Steve Priestley in April
2005 enclosing a list of properties that the FCO had sold in the
third quarter of the Financial Year 2004-05, in fulfilment of
a commitment made by Sir Michael Jay to the Committee on 20 July
2004 to submit regular reports. Enclosed with this letter is a
table listing the properties sold in the fourth quarter of the
Financial Year 2004-05.
As with previous tables, the figures shown are
the gross sales proceeds. Transaction costs will vary, but can
be expected to average 6-8%. Only one of the properties involved,
that sold in St Georges, Grenada, was the Residence of a Head
of Mission, which has been replaced.
