Delivering restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster: the costed proposals

Produced by the Restoration and Renewal Client Board on behalf of the House of Lords Commission and the House of Commons Commission, this report sets out the context for decisions on the future restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster.

It outlines the condition of the building, the pressures created by ageing infrastructure and reactive maintenance, and the statutory objectives guiding the Restoration and Renewal Programme. The report introduces the delivery options under consideration and explains the proposed approach to phasing, governance and decision-making, intended to support informed parliamentary scrutiny as the programme develops.
