HC Deb 01 November 1988 vol 139 c559W
Mr. Chapman

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if there are any plans to return to its original level the Terrace of the Palace of Westminster.

Mr. Chope

There are no proposals to restore the Terrace to its original level. The work involved would be substantial and for the foreseeable future there are more pressing priorities to be met from the parliamentary works vote.
