The Senior Deputy Speaker
This is important not only for enabling people with access difficulties to get into the building more safely but for the security of the Palace.
Baroness Hamwee (LD)
My Lords, given how long this has gone on and is likely to go on, can the noble Lord urge that this rigorous consideration includes the use of not only human beings but electronic means? There are traffic lights all over London where roadworks are going on, ensuring that traffic going in both directions, and pedestrians, are kept separate.
The Senior Deputy Speaker
My Lords, I am sure that all these matters will be and are considered by Strategic Estates. I understand that there was an experiment with a traffic light that was not quite as successful as hoped. I am sure that the point the noble Baroness makes will be heard.
