National Holocaust Memorial Centre and Learning Service (6 January 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of using an alternative, larger site than Victoria Tower Gardens for the proposed Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre.

Asked by:
Sir John Hayes (Conservative)

Answer

Victoria Tower Gardens is the right site for the Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre. The Memorial will stand as a reminder of the horrors of the past and will encourage reflection on their implications for British government and society, both at the time and subsequently. Full details of the proposed Memorial and Learning Centre, including the assessment of other sites, were provided at the recent public inquiry.
