Mr. Austin Mitchell

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when he hopes to complete the refurbishment of Ashdown house to restore it to full operational use.

Refurbishment of the foyer of Ashdown house will be finished by the end of the year. I apologise for any inconvenience the work has caused. The rest of the building is fully operational.
