Dr. Cable

To ask the hon. Member for Roxburgh and Berwickshire, representing the House of Commons Commission what work is outstanding on(a) Norman Shaw North, (b) Norman Shaw South and (c) Portcullis House; and what the estimated completion date is. [128789]

Sir Archy Kirkwood

No work is outstanding in Norman Shaw North other than routine maintenance.

In Norman Shaw South the refurbishment contractor has defects liability until February 2004 and he will attend to any items as necessary. The design consultant has liability to resolve window closure details and an issue in connection with air conditioning design. Also, some minor alterations were requested by the Accommodation and Works Committee for execution this summer.

In Portcullis House the water feature contractor is currently fulfilling his defects liability and the fenestration contractor has one item remaining from his defects schedule which is to be dealt with in September.
