Under the terms of the contract, the Department sold all its property interests (and risk) to our Estates private sector partner, Telereal Trillium.

It is not possible to disaggregate the costs for individual maintenance tasks.</p><p> </p><p>We have not spent any monies (outside of the unitary charge) on refurbishing (a) gymnasium and leisure facilities, (b) cafeteria and (c) interior decoration in 2013 or 2014 to date.</p> answering member constituency Forest of Dean answering member printed Mr Mark Harper question first answered 17/07/2014 15:45:04 answering member 1520 label Biography information for Mr Mark Harper
