Gloucester Grove Estate

EDM number 1055 in 1993-94, proposed by Harriet Harman on 19/04/1994.

That this House deplores the decision to exclude the phase 7 Gloucester Grove improvements from the estates action programme; notes that Government enthusiasm for progress on Gloucester Grove estate was emphasised by visits to the estate from no fewer than five environment ministers over the last few years; recognises that as a result of encouragement from the Department of the Environment Southwark Council spent over ú35,000 preparing the bid; notes that in addition to numerous committee meetings there were seven evening meetings to consult tenants on the estate action bid; and recognises that the tenants on Gloucester Grove are dismayed that the vital phase 7 improvements have no funding and that the Government has misled the tenants and wasted their time and Southwark Council's money.

This motion has been signed by a total of 24 MPs.
