§ Mr. Keith Vaz (Leicester, East)I wish to present a petition on behalf of Sally Brookebank of 27 Holden street, Leicester, Peggy Smith of 123 Loughborough road, Leicester, county councillor Margaret Berridge of Windsor avenue, Leicester and 60 other residents of Belgrave in Leicester who are very concerned about the fact that the city council has decided to impose a site for itinerants on the junction of Ross walk and Loughborough road. They believe very strongly that they should have been consulted by the city council before any site was chosen. The petition
Sheweth that they, being residents of Belgrave are opposed most strongly to the proposal of any site for travellers in the area of Ross Walk and Loughborough Road because there has been no prior consultation with residents.Wherefore your Petitioners pray that your Honourable House will urge the Secretary of State for the Environment to intervene in this matter.
§ To lie upon the Table.
