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

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answers from Lord Greenhalgh on 23 February (HL6158 and HL 6159), what assessment they have made of the risk of damage to the Victoria Tower from (1) the excavations, and  (2) the vibrations from heavy piling work, required for the development of the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre at Victoria Tower Gardens.

Excavations and piling work for the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre will be carefully managed and monitored to ensure minimal impact on the surroundings. There is no expectation that these works will impact on Victoria Tower.
