HC Deb 02 November 1987 vol 121 c579W
70. Mr. Michael Marshall

asked the Minister for the Arts what is the present position on the development scheme of the Royal Opera House.

Mr. Luce

I am still considering the revised proposals for the development of the Covent Garden site, in so far as they affect my responsibilities under the development land trust deed. However, I understand that the Covent Garden Community Association has been granted a right of appeal against the development in the High Court, and it would be inappropriate for me to comment further at this time.
