§ Mr. Spearingasked the Secretary of State for Transport if, further to his answer to the hon. Member for Newham, South on the funding of the docklands light railway eastern extension, Official Report, 1 December, column 617, he will place in the Library a copy of the text of the assurance he has received from the London Docklands Development Corporation concerning private funding of the extension.
§ Mr. David MitchellI am unable to deposit the documents referred to as they contain commercially sensitive information. We believe that this part of the docklands light railway can and should be paid for out of the private and public sector development gains it is expected to generate.
