HC Deb 14 December 1983 vol 50 c459W
Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will set out the procedure for producing the 33 new borough structure plans in London following the possible abolition of the Greater London council.

Mr. Macfarlane

The procedures for the preparation of new borough structure plans in London following the abolition of the Greater London council are set out in a consultation paper I issued in October, "The Re-allocation of Planning Functions in the Greater London Council and Metropolitan County Council areas."

Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what effect he anticipates the abolition of the Greater London council having on the approval dates of the 33 London borough structure plans.

Mr. Macfarlane

London boroughs have no powers at present to prepare structure plans.
