Proceeding contribution from Elliot Morley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 November 2005. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Contaminated Brownfield Sites.


Contaminated Brownfield Sites

: It is certainly true that there can be an impact on the value of property, which is why I have a great deal of sympathy for the constituents of the hon. Member for North-East Cambridgeshire. However, I understand that the former National Rivers Authority advised his local authority that the site was contaminated. Why the proper examination and site impacts were not done at that time is an issue, but that is in the past, so it does not help the people who are living there now.
