A number of offences may involve the use of a computer or a network in the commission of the offence.

The Cabinet Office estate is committed to improving the energy efficiency of its buildings. The estate incorporates buildings of different ages and types that require a selection of lighting solutions which must be assessed on a case by case basis. LED lighting does not always provide the most sustainable option in all scenarios.</p><p>Current implementation of LED lighting is approximately 5-10% across the entire estate. However, its use is increasing as existing lighting comes to the end of its effective life. Downing Street has implemented many of these new products in recent upgrades to some State Rooms, corridors and offices.</p><p>In addition to ensuring that the most appropriate lighting solution is selected across the estate, the Cabinet Office also incorporates lighting control mechanisms via presence detection and daylight sensors into its core buildings. These installations form part of the overall strategy to reduce electricity consumption estate wide as part of the wider Greening Government Commitment. Currently the estate as a whole has reduced electricity consumption by 34% from an 09/10 baseline</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Horsham answering member printed Mr Francis Maude question first answered 06/11/2014 17:37:58 answering member 115 label Biography information for Lord Maude of Horsham
