HC Deb 31 July 1972 vol 842 cc33-4W
Mr. Kilfedder

asked the Lord President of the Council when was the last occasion public health inspectors visited the kitchens in the public and the Members' cafeterias and dining rooms; and if he will request them to make a visit forthwith.

Mr. R. Carr

Conditions of hygiene within the House of Commons are maintained at the highest possible standard and regular inspections are made by fully qualified public health engineers of the Department of the Environment.

The last time the kitchens in the public and the Members' cafeterias and dining rooms were visited was in March, 1971, and arrangements have been made for a further visit as soon as the current building work has been completed.
