Proceeding contribution from Lord Baker of Dorking (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 June 2005. It occurred during Question for short debate on Vauxhall Tower.

Vauxhall Tower

My Lords, before the noble Baroness sits down, I assure her that I have never considered her to be a philistine. As a member of the Greater London Assembly, will she remind us of the   debate that took place in that assembly on this development? Was it ever discussed? Did the assembly ever debate its consequential effects on the London skyline? Who is controlling this in London? When the noble Baroness says that she does not like Parliament getting involved, if there is not a debate in the Greater London Assembly, where can there be one? Is this all done behind closed doors at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs?
