§ Mr. Dennis TurnerThe Refreshment Department will revert to the use of paper carrier bags for take-away food and drinks, except in the Debate restaurant in Portcullis House, where the use of clear plastic bags helps to reduce queues by allowing cashiers to see the contents without the need for carrier bags to be unpacked at the tills.
