Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 June 2025

Debate

Palace of Westminster: Restoration and Renewal

Contribution

My Lords, can the noble Lord confirm that the cost of delay in taking a decision on getting started is running at £700 million a year, and that we really need to get a definitive decision now? Given that, under any sensible option, the House of Lords will have to decant to the QEII Centre for a period, can the Minister explain where we have got to in making preparations for such a move?
