The reason for a cashless policy at the two outbuildings is due to security constraints on the transportation of monies between the outbuildings and the main Palace. The cost for monies to be collected outweighed the cash taken. Vending machines are procured as card only for security reasons.</p> answering member constituency Broxbourne answering member printed Sir Charles Walker question first answered 23/11/2023 11:28:37 answering member 1493 label Biography information for Sir Charles Walker
