Senate today.

The only business expected to be dealt with is Government Sen. Gary Pitman's "take note'' motion on the 1995 annual report of the Bermuda Housing Corporation.

The report was not debated in the House of Assembly and is not usually debated in the Senate.

Sen. Pitman, who is Parliamentary Secretary for the Minister of Works, Engineering, and Housing, did not wish to say yesterday why he made his "take note'' motion.

In the report, BHC chairman Mr. Christopher Marshall said a five-year programme was under way to sell some housing units, move some tenants to other units, and in some cases ask tenants to move to privately-owned apartments.

"This will be a gradual process but in the end it is the intention of the Corporation to use its units to effectively house those who need accommodation, to assist them where needed and when their situation has improved to have them move on as well,'' he said.

"For some that have unusual problems this will not be possible and of course they will remain in BHC accommodation.'' The programme was launched following a survey to determine "the type and number of units that BHC should keep in its housing stock,'' and to get "a very clear and accurate picture of the housing requirements of our tenants.'' VISITOR ARRIVALS FALL YET AGAIN TOU Visitor arrivals fall yet again Visitor arrivals fell again last week, slipping 2.8 percent compared to the same period last year.

For the week ending December 3, a total of 4614 arrivals were logged, down 125 on the same week in 1994.

For the year to date, there have been 543,449 visitors to Bermuda, 31,750 fewer than for the same period in the previous year -- a 5.5 per cent drop.

The amounts of $1.76 million Bermudian and just over $300,000 US may represent his home in Flatts and a Bermuda bank account.

Over more than 30 years, Lord White and business partner Lord Hanson built the Anglo-American conglomerate Hanson Plc, in a series of often controversial deals.

A lover of fast cars, gambling, horse racing and beautiful women, Lord White's colourful lifestyle and ruthless business style made him famous around the world.

In his younger days, he kept company with actresses like Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe.

A former member of the crack British Army sabotage unit, the Special Operations Executive, Lord White was born in Hull, in Northern England, in 1923.

Lord Hanson and Lord White built Hanson into an industrial giant spanning a range of industries in the United States and Britain, employing 80,000 people and worth about $17 billion.

He settled in the United States in 1973, building Hanson Industries, a branch of Hanson Plc, from scratch into one of the largest US groups. He amassed a personal fortune put at $110 to $150 million and had sumptuous homes around the world.

Lord White's last marriage took place soon after the relationship hit the headlines with Ms Tucker alleging that Lord White beat her up in Aspen, the US ski resort.

Police dropped charges after Ms Tucker retracted her story and the marriage took place later, in Bermuda, despite Lord White being quoted as saying: "Never marry a young girl. They only want babies.'' Executors of Lord White's estate are lawyer Mr. Richard Pearman of Bermuda, Mr. Bernard Godfrey White and Mr. Anthony Patrick Newbold of Marbella, Spain. The trustees are the three executors and Mr. Robert William Hanson of London.

Should either Mr. White or Mr. Newbold die, Mr. Alec Ross Anderson of Paget, Bermuda is named as an executor and trustee.

The bequest to Lord White's widow was on condition the couple was together when he died. Otherwise, the estate was to be left to a Bermuda trust.
