With the approval of the programme's Full Business Case in February 2022, a decision has been taken for the long-term transfer of collections from the Parliamentary Archives to The National Archives (Partner organisation) in Kew. The Programme requires a contract for the uplift (move) of Parliamentary Archive Collection items from Victoria Tower, Palace of Westminster to The National Archives in Kew, which meets transit requirements of archival material and security and access arrangements.
