These differences of opinion can and should be discussed in a mature and respectful manner. Where that has not been the case, the Government would urge those on all sides to treat each other with more respect. The Government would strongly condemn abuse or intimidation, from whichever side of the debate it comes.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 13/02/2019 17:34:42 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/02/2019 answer text <p>The welfare of our staff is of course our principal concern. Whilst the issue of supplementary heating has not been raised by any of the Doorkeepers through the usual management channels, I can confirm that the situation has already been assessed and a simple solution, involving the closing of a fire door, has been identified, which will be implemented immediately, subject to consultation with the fire safety team. In addition, the high level windows in library corridor, which had been contributing to a cold draught in the corridor, have now all been closed.<br></p><p>The Doorkeepers are on post for a maximum of 30 minutes at a time, and the post is rotated daily between a team of 11 Doorkeepers, so the team should find that the proposed solution will deliver immediate benefits to their working environment.<br></p><p>The Library Corridor is not presently heated. It is lined on both sides with bookcases which means there is nowhere to install any radiators, and the pipework to do so currently does not exist.</p> answering member constituency Carshalton and Wallington answering member printed Tom Brake question first answered 13/02/2019 19:03:18 answering member 151 label Biography information for Tom Brake
