The Senior Deputy Speaker (Lord Gardiner of Kimble)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 June 2025

Debate

Contribution

I know that a number of options and buildings were looked at, and I know about the river proposal as well, but the QEII Centre always and consistently came out as the preferred location.
