Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, when he plans to make a decision on the compulsory purchase orders required for the delivery of the new housing and retail facilities planned for the Brent Cross and Cricklewood development.

My Department is actively considering the report of the Inspector into the London Borough of Barnet Compulsory Purchase Order (No 1 & 2) 2015. Once the Secretary of State has received advice and made a decision on whether or not to confirm Compulsory Purchase Orders 1 & 2, a formal, reasoned decision letter will be issued.
