HC Deb 28 February 1989 vol 148 c118W
Ms. Walley

To ask the Lord President of Council if he will seek to initiate a review of all offices occupied by right hon. and hon. Members and their staff, to establish whether guidelines laid down under health and safety legislation in respect of space per person are being exceeded.

Mr. Wakeham

I refer the hon. Lady to the Services Committee's second report of Session 1986–87: "New Parliamentary Building (Phase 2)", HC378, and its first report of Session 1987–88: "New Parliamentary Building (Phase 2): The Next Steps", HC561. Those reports, which were recently considered by the House, recommend certain standards of accommodation for Members and their staff.
