HAMPSTEAD HEATH BATHING PONDS

Motion Text

That this House, mindful of the unique importance of the health and its facilities to the health and well-being of London and Londoners, shares the Government's commitment to the reduction of obesity and support for healthy exercise; calls upon the Government to discuss, with the Corporation of the City of London, how the threatened closure of the bathing ponds may be avoided; notes that such a closure is envisioned by the apparent lack of ú65,000, an amount bearing no relation to the actual loss should Londoners be deprived of this passionately valued, much used and irreplaceable facility.
