Video Conferencing

Volume 455: debated on Tuesday 9 January 2007

25. To ask the hon. Member for North Devon, representing the House of Commons Commission what plans he has to provide for further video conferencing facilities for the use of hon. Members. (113143)

At present a portable video-conference facility can be booked via the Serjeant at Arms Department by Members for their use in some of the meeting rooms in Portcullis House. New equipment was introduced in the summer of 2006.

In the longer term, Westminster office-to-constituency-office video-conferencing will be considered as part of a larger initiative to improve IT services to constituencies.
