"Yet could the revenue generated by the sale of
the site for redevelopment not pay for alternative storage elsewhere,
owned directly by the PRO (assuming that the PRO actually own
Hayes, which they may not).
I too would like to see a statement from the PRO to clarify what
actually is happening and what safeguards will be in place."
If you read the article closely you will see it is the Ministry of Defence
who are trying to raise money by selling off the site, not the PRO. As they
are military records I am surprised no-one on this list has wondered when
MoD are going to defend themselves...
Views are my own.
