(2) what organisation or company provided the certification for the doors and windows for the refurbishment of the Ministry of Defence building to show that they were produced from sustainably managed sources; and if he will place a copy of these certificates in the Library. [41351]

Dr. Moonie

The existing aluminium framed windows are not being replaced except for those beyond economic repair or damaged during the construction process. These will be replaced with windows of similar construction.

The developed Ministry of Defence Main Building will be open plan in design. Existing doors taken from the building will be re-used in certain circumstances, e.g. fire doors. No contracts have yet been placed in respect of either windows or doors for the redevelopment.
