Mr. Barnes: To ask the Chairman of the Information Committee what assessment he has made of the impact of the year 2000 computer bug
on the operation of the House of Commons. [50172]
Mr. Allan: The House of Commons has been actively involved in assessing the Year 2000 problem for some time, and has commissioned a
working party under the management of the Network Administrator's Group (NAG). This forum has produced the `Year 2000 Implementation
Guide for the Houses of Parliament', and contains a `Definition of Year 2000 Conformity Requirements' prepared by the British
Standards Institution committee, (their reference BDD/1/-/3). The NAG forum has tested and identified a set of tools and procedures
for remedial action.
Each department in the House of Commons is busy developing a project plan, using these NAG recommendations, to ensure their systems
are fully compliant. As part of this plan PCD will facilitate a test schedule for weeks commencing the 10 and 17 August 1998 so that
all departments can test their computer equipment with the PDVN.
