HC Deb 01 December 1998 vol 321 cc114-5W
Mr. Peter Ainsworth

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what discussions he has held with(a) Greenwich Council, (b) London Underground and (c) the Port of London Authority over contingency plans for transport to the Millennium Dome. [61980]

Dr. Reid

My hon. Friend the Minister for Transport in London, through her Millennium Access Co-ordination Group, asked London Underground Limited to lead the production of contingency plans for transport to the Millennium Dome, and keep the group informed of progress. Progress was presented to the group in October, at which time there was discussions on how the work was progressing and next steps.

My hon. Friend has had no discussions with the Borough of Greenwich or the Port of London Authority on contingency planning. The Borough of Greenwich has, however, recently become a member of the Millennium Access group and will therefore participate in future discussions on this work.
