HC Deb 25 November 1992 vol 214 c678W
Mr. Shersby

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if he will publish a list of all the new capital projects in the royal parks referred to in his Department's news release of 12 November, together with the estimated cost of each such project.

Mr. Key

Final decisions have not been taken yet on next year's programme of capital projects in the Royal parks, and design work is still in hand in some cases. However, I envisage that as a result of the additional allocation of funds announced on 12 November it will be possible to carry out the following projects:

  • map and signposting in all the parks;
  • restoration of Speakers corner, Hyde park;
  • floodlighting the lake in St. James's park;
subject to satisfactory design and acceptable costings.
