§ 35. Mr. Ian Lloydasked the Lord Privy Seal whether he will deposit in the Library a copy of the Report prepared by the Ministry of Public Building and Works on the standard of lighting within the Palace of Westminster.
§ The Lord Privy Seal and Leader of the House of Commons (Mr. Fred Peart)Yes, Sir. I am making arrangements accordingly.
§ Mr. LloydSince the right hon. Gentleman must be aware of the contents of the Report, is he aware that in any modern industrial organisation a minimum of 25 lumens is thought to be necessary for good quality reading, and that there are few places where Members work in the House where the standard is in excess of 10?
§ Mr. PeartI should have thought that I have answered the Question. I hope that the hon. Gentleman is quite pleased.
