Prasad urges prince to lay off barracks scheme

摘要

RIBA president Sunand Prasad has made a dramatic appeal to Prince Charles to stop interfering with Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners' Chelsea Barracks scheme amid a mounting backlash against the institute's decision to invite the heir to the throne to deliver this year's keynote RIBA TVust speech. Just days after announcing that the prince is to speak at the RIBA's 175 birthday celebrations next month, Prasad warned on Tuesday that any intervention by the prince in the £1 billion barracks scheme risked undermining the "democratic process".
