The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the answer of 23 March 2026, to Question 120060, on Chinese Embassy: Planning Permission, why the Section 106 agreement published on the Tower Hamlets website, INQ34, Royal Mint Court Completed S106, 1 May 2025, has not been updated with the amendments to the Section 106 agreement made in the Secretary of State’s decision notice on the called-in planning application.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

The Secretary of State’s conclusions in respect of the S106 Agreement are at Paragraphs 111-121 of the published decision letter, which can be found on gov.uk here.

Implementation of the said Agreement, in line with the Secretary of State's decision, is a matter for the parties to it.
