Asked what steps the Sponsor Body has taken to ensure adequate consultation with local residents and businesses on the restoration and renewal programme. Inquired if the Sponsor Body is aware of plans for the UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre in Victoria Tower Gardens and sought assurances that there would be minimum disruption to public access to the park from both projects.
