High House Production Park

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government what information his Department holds on who has been appointed trustees of the High House Production Park in Thurrock; by whom they were appointed; and for how long.

Answer: The Board of High House Production Park currently comprises four founding members: Lord Tony Hall, (Board Chair), Mr Paul Shadavarian QC, and Mr Will McKee, the Chair, and Mr Niall Lindsay, the Chief Executive Officer and Accounting Officer, of the Thurrock Thames Gateway Development Corporation. The appointments were made by the Development Corporation and were a prerequisite for the application to the Charities Commission to secure charitable status which was conferred on the Production Park in January 2012. Under the charity's articles, Thurrock council is also a founding member, and has the automatic ability to nominate one of their officers to join the board. The four founding members are on appointment terms that vary between one and three years. Under the charity's articles the board will eventually comprise 13 members including the existing appointees.
