An initial desk-based assessment of existing data regarding air quality in the vicinity of the Palace of Westminster has been conducted as part of the Restoration and Renewal Programme, and a further assessment will be conducted to provide more accurate and up to date data. These assessments will inform the development of the designs and business case for the restoration works.<\/p>

The Sponsor Body has agreed a strategic objective to mitigate the environmental impact of the Programme during the construction phase and to minimise the impact in relation to the Palace's future operation, in line with its statutory obligations.

The strategic review of the Restoration and Renewal Pogramme, which is currently being conducted by the Sponsor Body and Delivery Authority, has considered the possibility of the two Houses sharing some facillities during any period of decant, including catering and library functions. However, the desirability of doing so would be subject to the agreement of both Houses, if recommended as part of the decant strategy proposed by the strategic review. The strategic review's draft recommendations will be considered by the Sponsor Body Board in November. The report will then be discussed with both Houses before it is published.<\/p>

The possibility of combining or rationalising facilities after the Palace has been restored has not been considered by the Sponsor Body and would be a matter for both Houses to determine rather than the Programme.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2542", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Scott of Needham Market"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Scott of Needham Market"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-10-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-10-21T14:10:44.283Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "207"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-10-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Palace of Westminster: Repairs and Maintenance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body what discussions they have had about (1) the combining, and (2) the rationalising, of facilities as part of the Palace of Westminster Restoration and Renewal Programme, including of (a) libraries, (b) refreshment facilities, (c) family rooms, and (d) car parking, (i) during, and (ii) after, any such restoration work.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1387", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Mann"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Mann"} ], "uin" : "HL9303"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1231404", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1231404/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Restoration and Renewal Programme is considering the costs and benefits of a range of possible interventions for restoring the Palace of Westminster as part of the preparation of the outline business case for the works, which both Houses will be invited to endorse, as required by section 7 of the Parliamentary Buildings (Restoration and Renewal) Act 2019.<\/p>

On 19 May the Sponsor Body announced it would conduct a strategic review of the Programme. On 1 July I wrote to all Members of the House inviting them to make submissions to that review by 7 August, which was also notified by way of a written statement (HLWS321). Members of the House of Commons were invited to do the same by the Sponsor Body spokesperson in that House.<\/p>

The costs and benefits of decanting both Houses to alternative sites was previously assessed in support of the deliberations of the Joint Committee on the Palace of Westminster. These sites have also been considered as part of the strategic review, alongside additional alternative sites, and the outcome of that work will form part of the review\u2019s findings.<\/p>

The review will conclude in the autumn and its findings will be considered by the Sponsor Body Board and the Commissions of both Houses in the first instance.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2542", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Scott of Needham Market"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Scott of Needham Market"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-09-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-09-11T12:44:44.917Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "207"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-09-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Palace of Westminster: Repairs and Maintenance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body what plans they have to conduct an independent review (1) of the costs and benefits of the restoration and renewal scheme for the Palace of Westminster, and (2) of the attendant costs and benefits of decanting MPs and Members of the House of Lords to other sites.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3682", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Truscott"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Truscott"} ], "uin" : "HL7835"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1220816", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Parliamentary Works Sponsor Body"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1220816/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
