The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential impact of local government restructuring on the (a) administration and (b) viability of the Eden Project Morecambe.

Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh

During the local government reorganisation process, it is expected that councils continue to deliver their services and duties as usual until reorganisation is complete. The proposed restructuring of local government has not been raised, in discussion between officials and the project, as having an impact on delivery. Following the completion of reorganisation, commitments undertaken by existing councils will become the responsibility of any new unitary authorities.
