HL Deb 23 January 2002 vol 630 c214WA
Lord Fearn

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether there are any plans to redevelop the Wembley stadium site once the stadium has been demolished. [HL2331]

The Minister of State, Department for Culture, Media and Sport (Baroness Blackstone)

The Football Association announced on 19 December 2001 its intention to pursue the development at Wembley of a modified version of the World Stadium Team proposals designed by Lord Foster of Thames Bank and approved by Brent Council in June 2000. The determination of the revised plans are subject to planning law and due process and will need to be approved before any demolition of the existing stadium, a listed building, can begin.
