HC Deb 03 December 1957 vol 579 c33W
Mr. K. Robinson

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government to what extent Her Majesty's Theatre will be affected by the redevelopment of the Carlton Hotel site; whether any application for planning permission involving Her Majesty's Theatre has yet reached him in accordance with the undertaking given by his predecessor concerning the preservation of London theatres; and if he will give an assurance that Her Majesty's will be preserved as a theatre.

Mr. H. Brooke

The theatre will not be affected by the present redevelopment of the Carlton Hotel site. Under present arrangements I understand that the New Zealand Government hope to obtain possession of the theatre site in 1970 when the current lease expires, but so far as I am aware no plans have yet been formulated for any developments thereafter.
