§ Mr. David Reedasked the Lord President of the Council what catering facilities will be available in August in view of the reconstruction of the kitchens; and what will be the arrangement in the event of a recall of the House during the recess.
Dr. BennettI have been asked to reply.
A set meal, including a cold buffet, will be available in the Members' and Strangers' Dining Rooms during the first two weeks in August. It will not be possible to supply an à la carte menu. If the House is recalled during the recess the dining rooms will not be available, but a restaurant service will be provided in the Strangers' Cafeteria for Members and their guests. Facilities will be provided in the Westminster Hall Canteen for staff and Members' secretaries.
