The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will publish the (a) address and (b) building condition metric of central government buildings.

Answered by Georgia Gould

As has been longstanding practice under successive administrations, on security and operational grounds, details of specific central government building addresses and conditions are not published. However, The State of the Estate report containing the aggregated insights across government estate is laid before parliament on an annual basis.

The Cabinet Office is currently working on plans to publish aggregate building condition data and insights for the reporting period of FY2026/27.
