Business question from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 March 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May we have a debate on the development of housing on brownfield sites, following the decision of General Electric, one of the biggest companies in the world, to sell its site in Rushy Mead in Leicester but to put a restrictive covenant on it so that it can be used only for commercial and employment purposes, not housing? The site is contaminated, but should not companies that occupy sites for more than five decades clean them up before selling them on? May we have a debate on that matter?
