Stephen Williams MP wants to see action on regeneration plans for Westmoreland House

Stephen Williams MP for Bristol West tabled an Early Day Motion (EDM 1751) in order to press for a solution to the Westmoreland House site in Stokes Croft.

Stephen has criticised the Government's move to cut the budget of the South West Regional Development Agency (SWRDA) which has meant that there is no longer funding to proceed with a rescue plan for the building. Stephen is dismayed that the SWRDA's plans to act with a Compulsory Purchase Order on the Carriage Works have now been shelved.

Stephen has twice spoken on SWRDA cuts and the way in which the Stokes Croft area has been impacted in House of Commons debates this month. Stephen has worked with local Lib Dem Councillors for years for a solution to this site and will continue fighting for its regeneration.

    If you are a resident of the Bristol West constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
