97–107 Shaw Street, Liverpool

HC Deb 26 July 1989 vol 157 c784W

Mr. Alton

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received about the future of 97–107 Shaw street, Liverpool; and whether he will intervene to prevent the demolition of these properties.

Mr. Chope

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Environment is not aware of any representations following the then Secretary of State's decision on the Liverpool city council order. This decision was issued on 30 March 1989 and the city council has a five-year period within which it must take action.

A total of five statutory and 102 non-statutory objections were received in response to the compulsory purchase order, all of which were considered by my right hon. Friend before he issued his decision.
