Written question asked by Lord Swire (Conservative) on Monday, 5 June 2006, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 7 June 2006. It was answered by David Lammy (Labour) on Monday, 12 June 2006 on behalf of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.


Commonwealth Institute Building

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if she will make a statement on the future of the Commonwealth Institute Building.
Answer

Government recognise the importance of the Commonwealth Institute's work to support educational programmes to benefit young people in all 53 Commonwealth countries and understands that the building is no longer appropriate for that work. It would be inappropriate for me to comment further on this matter while discussions are still to be concluded.
