To ask the Senior Deputy Speaker what plans he has to replace the kerb adjacent to Peers' Entrance with a dropped kerb and whether any reason has been given for not doing so.

The design of the pavements and kerbs adjacent to Peers' Entrance is compliant with the accessibility requirements of UK Building Regulations. While no final decision has been taken on making changes to the current design, it will need to take into account Health and Safety, disruption, cost as well as accessibility considerations. Strategic Estates and the Director of Facilities are considering this matter.
