Dear Mr Speaker

Please see the attached response from the ICO which confirms the House of Lords holds no Lightning Risk Assessment and it also purports the HoL is compliant to all Lightning Standards. This is a contradiction in terms.

Unfortunately, the Houses of Parliament are being misled or hoodwinked into thinking these premises are lightning compliant.

In the event the HoL does noy hold any lightning risk assessment, it would automatically follow that BS/EN 62305/2008 has been violated.

I am scheduled to attend an UT Hearing in London on this matter next Thur 16th Oct and I would ask HoL legal advisors to be present at this hearing. I suggest you bring along a couple of Beefeaters and you can haul the ICO officers directly to the Tower!

For your information action and files

With thanks

Yours sincerely

Would you, Mr Bradshaw MP, by virtue of your non-responses, be prepared to accept full liability should there be any unfortunate incident consequent upon your inactions despite having been informed, and would you be prepared to attend with myself in a filmed interview for the local TV/media?

For your information action and files

Yours sincerely
