Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Rotherwick (Conservative). It was answered on Tuesday, 17 July 2007.


Millennium Dome

Question
My Lords, for how long was the Dome mothballed before its recent purchase and what was the total cost of mothballing it?
Answer

My Lords, the cost was significant and the number of years was several. However, the noble Lord will recognise that the Dome has been sold and is now flourishing as an entertainment centre. Greenwich is benefiting enormously from the regeneration of the Greenwich peninsula. We have learnt lessons from the Dome and are implementing them.
