HC Deb 22 January 1992 vol 202 c217W
Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he last visited Oxleas wood, south-east London; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Chope

I have not visited the site, although my right hon. and learned Friend has. I accept that many people are very concerned about the effect of the east London river crossing on Oxleas wood, but no new evidence has come forward to cause the decision that was taken in 1988 to be changed.
