Text

I thank the Minister for her answer and her invitation to visit the facilities, to which I have replied. Minister, I am sure that you will agree that, on the face of it, an investment of £13·3 million in a kitchen and cafe seems excessive. How confident is the Minister that that will deliver value for money? Is she in a position to outline the detailed specification and a breakdown of the cost? The issue is of huge concern, particularly given the huge budgetary restraints that we have across government at this time.
