§ Bob SpinkTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many rooms are set aside for(a) the use of smokers, (b) worship, broken down by religion and 1438W (c) nursing mothers and pregnant women in each building and set of offices for which his Department is responsible. [187310]
§ Mr. CaplinThe Ministry of Defence is fully committed to providing a safe environment and workplace where all staff are valued and respected irrespective of different background and cultures.
The provision of dedicated rooms for the areas covered in the question is not a central responsibility, but a matter for each individual Head of Establishment. Records are not held centrally and to gather and collate such information would incur disproportionate costs.
