HC Deb 04 May 1989 vol 152 c250W
Mr. Tony Banks

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will extend the provisions of part II of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 to the City of London.

Mrs. Virginia Bottomley

We have no plans at present for designating areas of archaeological importance within the City of London. English Heritage has been reviewing the effectiveness of part II of the 1979 Act and has recently submitted advice, which we are considering.
