HC Deb 19 November 1986 vol 105 c240W
41. Mr. John Hunt

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what considerations led him to allow the appeal by Arlington Securities against the refusal of planning permission by the London borough of Bromley in respect of the proposed office development at Bromley South; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Tracey

The considerations which led the Secretary of State for the Environment to allow this appeal by Arlington Securities are set out in the letter dated 25 September 1986 issued by the Department. My hon. Friend may be aware that the London borough of Bromley is seeking judicial review of that decision in the High Court and I am sure he will understand that in these circumstances it would not be appropriate for the Secretary of State to make a statement.
