Dear DIO Sec-Group Mailbox (MULTIUSER),

Thank you for your reply. I would be grateful to know why the information requested is not held centrally when in 2000 RWMAC recommended that the MOD

"MoD should be as clear as is reasonably possible about its contaminated land holdings, and should set up a database for this purpose (drawing on LQA findings and on previous site investigation records, including desk studies and other land quality data). At the time of finalising this report (June 2000), the Ministry indicated that it was in the process of developing such a database;"
