Written question asked by Julian Lewis (Conservative) on Friday, 26 September 2014, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 15 October 2014 (named day). It was answered by Philip Dunne (Conservative) on Wednesday, 15 October 2014 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.


Marchwood Military Port

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many of the organisations interested in leasing the Sea Monitoring Centre site at Marchwood in New Forest East constituency have been issued with his Department's invitation to negotiate; and what his policy is on the circumstances under which issues of commercial confidentiality inhibit revealing information.

Answer

The Ministry of Defence has issued five Invitations To Negotiate in relation to the granting of a concession for Marchwood Sea Mounting Centre. However, in keeping with previous practice, I have concluded that at this stage the interests of the transaction are best served by keeping confidential the identity of those participating parties.
