HC Deb 20 April 1989 vol 151 c299W
Mr. Tony Banks

to ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what assessment he has made of the future of strategic town centres in London; and what guidance he is offering the London boroughs in respect of their long-term development.

Mr. Chope

My right hon. Friend has considered the advice on strategic centres put forward by the London planning advisory committee. He does not consider that strategic centres should be designated in the guidance.
