HC Deb 21 November 1997 vol 301 c334W
Mr. Vaz

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what regeneration schemes are to be sited in Greenwich as part of the Millennium celebrations. [16467]

Mr. Caborn

The decision to site the Millennium Experience on the Greenwich Peninsula has brought forward the regeneration of the site. A masterplan for a new urban quarter in London has been prepared by English Partnerships, the Government's regeneration agency, which now owns the Peninsula. The Millennium Village scheme announced by the Deputy Prime Minister in July this year represents the first stage of development.
