We launched a consultation on the proposals in May which closed on 28 June 2019. We are currently reviewing the feedback, before submitting a suite of planning applications to Westminster City Council later in 2019. The Council will then also undertake its own consultation on the plans.

During the consultation we have engaged local communities around the site, including via a staffed public exhibition over a period of five days in May and June 2019 to enable local residents and members of the public to better understand and feedback on the proposals. All consultation materials remain available online.

We continue to engage with MPs and Peers, their staff, House staff, statutory bodies and interested parties including Westminster City Council, the Greater London Authority, Transport for London, Historic England and other heritage bodies.

In some areas our proposals are determined by the specific requirements for the temporary House of Commons Chamber and the need for the House of Commons to operate in a safe and secure environment while the works to the Palace of Westminster take place. However we are appreciative of all those who provided comments on the proposals, which are being shared with the Northern Estate Programme staff and the design team.

The consultation formally closed on 28 June, however should you wish to submit further comments please do by filling in the comments form below.
