Proceeding contribution from Baroness Brown of Silvertown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 February 2012. It occurred during Estimates day on Olympics and Paralympics (Funding).
Olympics and Paralympics (Funding)
Does the hon. Gentleman accept that the area of east London that the money in question is helping to regenerate was in desperate need, and that if we had not had the Olympics, the regeneration of that area may have taken decades more? Does he agree that the economic development of an area that was quite blighted is a wider and possibly more important issue than reimbursing the lottery?
