HC Deb 11 January 1993 vol 216 cc531-2W
17. Mr. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the most recent state of the arrangements for the commencement of work on the Jubilee line extension; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. MacGregor

We have made provision for the Jubilee line extension to be constructed subject to a satisfactory agreement being reached with the administrators of Olympia and York Canary Wharf on the terms on which they are to contribute towards its cost. Negotiations with the administrators are continuing.
