HC Deb 19 December 1969 vol 793 c461W
Mr. John Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Local Government and Regional Planning what estimate he has made of the effect on regional planning and housing in the London area of creating 4,000 additional jobs on the sites of Richmond Terrace and Scotland Yard.

Mr. Crosland

The proposals for redeveloping the Richmond Terrace—Bridge Street site do not involve creating 4,000 additional jobs. They do, however, involve concentrating 2,800 more Government staff on the site.
