§ Mr. Geoffrey Finsbergasked the Lord President of the Council if he will arrange to install hot and cold beverage vending machines in Norman Shaw North for the convenience of Members and their secretaries.
§ Mr. DunnI have been asked to reply.
The additional costs to the Refreshment Department of such arrangements are prohibitive at the present time. It must be understood and accepted that provision of such vending machines in Norman Shaw North would necessarily mean that the other outlying buildings in which Members and their secretaries are accommodated would also need the same service.
