	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/06/2015 answer text <p>Holdings of real estate are assessed as either being required to deliver departmental functions (forming the Core estate) or surplus to this requirement (Non-Core). There is no system for classifying frequency of use. The government's top priority for surplus holdings is to reduce property costs by exiting leasehold agreements, selling freeholds or by sub-letting to external tenants. We have a portal - Find Me Some Government Space (https://www.gov.uk/find-government-property) – for more efficient marketing of surplus land and buildings. This is searchable by developers, community groups and the general public.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>It is considered not to be in the public interest to disclose real estate valuation reports, as this information can be commercially sensitive and any disclosure could adversely affect the Government’s future ability to negotiate efficiencies and achieve value for money to the taxpayer. However, the value of HM Treasury’s land and buildings is available in its annual report and accounts, which is accessible on www.gov.uk.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 30/06/2015 14:07:23 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
