Specifying the project means that, other than those works described in the Preparatory Work Notice, Thames Water Utilities Ltd is prevented from undertaking the infrastructure project and is instead required to put it out to tender, by running a competitive procurement for an infrastructure provider which will finance and deliver the Tunnel that is separate from Thames Water.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government is confident that both the project and the infrastructure provider will be classified to the private sector, and will not impact the public balance sheet.<\/p>"}

As in my answer given on 28 April 2014, Column Reference 548W, HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) does not own any land, and does not have any un-encumbered freehold buildings within its estate. The only exceptions to this are freehold interests in five Grade 1 Listed buildings that are owned by HMRC. However, each of these is subject to encumbrances impacting value and market demand. These five are compromised of the following:<\/p>
<\/p>
· Three historic Custom Houses (London, Greenock & Belfast) each of which is subject to a 175 lease from 2001with nil rent receivable. HMRC sold the virtual freehold interest in these properties in 2001.<\/p>
· Darwin House in Shrewsbury is subject to a 175 year lease from 2001 with nil rent receivable. HMRC also sold the virtual freehold interest in these properties in 2001.<\/p>
· 100 Parliament Street/ 1Horse Guards Road in London is subject to occupational rights to 2037 for the PFI provider, with nil rent receivable.<\/p>
<\/p>
HMRC does not plan to sell land or buildings in 2014/15.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
This position was previously stated and accepted in response to an enquiry made by the Homes and Community Agency in November 2013 on behalf of Cabinet Office (Government Property Unit) in relation to the Strategic Land and Property Review.<\/p>"}
