Nicholas Soames – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Nicholas Soames on 2015-10-13.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will place in the Library a copy of his Department’s global asset management plan.

Mr David Lidington

The Global Asset Management Plan is a commercially sensitive document which, if publicly available, would put the FCO and the UK taxpayer at a severe disadvantage in negotiating sales, purchases and leases. For that reason I will not place a copy of the plan in the Library.
