question text	To ask the hon.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2014 answer text <p>The changes at St Stephen's Entrance are intended to be temporary to reduce the queuing time at our public entrances. Work is progressing to improve the permanent public search facility at Cromwell Green. The redesign will deliver a more efficient search process and increase capacity. These changes are temporary and do not affect the building directly, so there was no prior consultation with English Heritage. However, work is also underway to explore, with English Heritage and Westminster City Council, installing a permanent canopy to the pedestrian walkway leading to the Cromwell Green Search Point, which would provide protection in bad weather.</p> answering member constituency Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross answering member printed John Thurso question first answered 01/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1399 label Biography information for Viscount Thurso
