Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, if she will make it her policy to implement a replacement programme to introduce LED lighting throughout her Department's buildings and sites; if she will estimate the proportion of lighting in her Department which is LED; and if she will make a statement.

The estimated proportion of LED lighting at both UK sites is 5%. LEDs have already been installed on a trial basis to monitor reductions in Greenhouse Gas emissions and also cost savings. If savings prove significant then we will consider rolling out more LED lighting across the organisation.
