HC Deb 15 April 1993 vol 222 c694W
Mr. Dowd

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what representations his Department has had from outside bodies calling for a single strategic authority to oversee transport, land use and environment in London; and if he will list them.

Mr. Norris

We have received a number of representations suggesting that some sort of agency is required to oversee transport, planning and related issues.

These have included the former National Economic Development Council in its "Amber Alert" report and the CBI's London region in the interim report of its transport task force.
