Written question asked by Apsana Begum (Independent (affiliation)) on Monday, 21 October 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 23 October 2024. It was answered by Mike Kane (Labour) on Tuesday, 29 October 2024 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
Port of London Authority: Licensing
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will hold discussions with the Port of London Authority on its compliance with section three of the Ports Good Governance Guidance, published in March 2018, in the context of its practice of charging for river works licenses for balconies that overhang the River Thames.
- Answer
-
The Department regularly engages with the Port of London Authority on a number of topics, including the PLAs approach to overhanging balconies on the river.
As there is going to be a public inquiry around the PLA Harbour Revision Order, where the topic of River Work licenses is likely to be raised it would be premature to take any substantive action, should that be appropriate, until the inquiry has concluded.
