Holocaust Memorial and Victoria Tower Gardens

Tabled by Sir Peter Bottomley (Conservative) 1 signatures

The motion

That this House notes that the Government said in proposals in September 2018 that the Holocaust Memorial would take up 15 per cent of the area of Victoria Tower Gardens and that that percentage was later reduced to 7 per cent; questions whether one calculation was of the green space and the other related to the whole park; and asks the Government to ask the President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors to make sensible, reliable, consistent calculations, including an estimate of how much of the gardens would be blocked off for what period if present proposals are not changed.
