Examination of Witnesses (Questions 12700
- 12704)
12700. CHAIRMAN: I see.
12701. MR MOULD: The final point: in
the unlikely event that Crossrail removes loading bays on the
market side of Lindsey Street (that is the western side of Lindsey
Street) and traders thereby sustain losses, those losses will
be compensated. I should just add, finally, that in deference
to my Lady, Lady Fookes' point, that undertaking, effectively,
if it arises at all, will only arise if we do not build the revised
scheme, which is, in itself, as you know, a very unlikely state
of affairs. The reason I say that is because we have carried into
the main legal undertaking the point that as regards the revised
scheme those loading bays on the market side of Lindsey Street
will be maintained throughout the duration of the Crossrail works,
which I think was a point which my Lady asked me to confirm. That
is the substance of what we have now agreed.
12702. CHAIRMAN: That is going into an
undertaking?
12703. MR MOULD: That is in an undertaking,
and the market tenants are content that they do not need to appear
further before your Lordships.
12704. CHAIRMAN: Thank you very much,
Mr Mould. We will adjourn until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
