In the time available, it has not been possible to identify and assemble all of the information requested. I am arranging for the compilation of data and a detailed reply will issue to the Deputy shortly.

Leasing of property and accommodation occupied by my Department is in the main managed by the Office of Public Works — my Department has no direct role in these matters. My Department has a direct involvement in leasing or renting only two small properties and details of these arrangements are set out in the table that follows this reply. The Government has decided that responsibility for the areas involved should transfer to the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.
