House of Lords: Security
Asked by: Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Conservative - Life peer) Thursday 3rd July 2025 Question To ask the Senior Deputy Speaker what was the cost per metre of the security fence on the West Front of the House of Lords, and what were the total costs for that project. Answered by Lord Gardiner of Kimble In publishing the costs of a security asset, an adversary would be provided with information about the level of and efficacy of the mitigation we have in place. For these reasons the costs of the newly installed Abingdon Street fence are not in the public domain. The fence is not ‘off the shelf’ and incorporates security measures specifically designed to keep out a wide range of hostile actors. In order to balance transparency with security, the House of Lords Finance Committee will undertake an enhanced programme of scrutiny of both costs and performance of security works, on a quarterly basis. |

Growth of private markets in the UK following reforms introduced after 2008 Financial Services Regulation Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 18 Sep 2025) This inquiry looks into the growth of private markets in the UK following reforms introduced after 2008. In particular, the inquiry will examine whether the regulatory capital and liquidity reforms introduced after 2008 have reduced banks’ ability or willingness to lend, pushing risk away from the banking sector and towards private markets. It will also look into how much visibility the Bank of England has on the size of these private markets, their interconnections with the banking sector, and any potential spillover risks. |
