§ Dr. Lynne JonesTo ask the Lord President of the Council how much his Department's computer-aided facilities management systems cost; from whom they were purchased; how many person hours were required to commission them; what the estimated and actual saving has been from their operation; and to what extent the use of such systems accounts for the apparent rise in theft noted in his answer to the hon. and learned Member for Fife, North-East (Mr. Campbell) of 16 February,Official Report, column 774.
§ Mr. NewtonThe Privy Council Office has no computer-aided facilities management systems.
As to theft, I refer the hon. Member to my answer to the hon. and learned Member for Fife, North-East (Mr. Campbell) on 16 February, which records that no equipment has been stolen from the Privy Council Office in the last three years.
