Talk:12 Downing Street

Untitled
Is this information still correct? I thought the Government Chief Whip had moved to 9 Downing Street? --Valentinian 1 July 2005 22:29 (UTC)

Redirect to Downing Street?
The contents of this article are all covered in the larger article on Downing Street. Should it be redirected there?

Used by Chief Whip or Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury
The article for 10 Downing Street says that it is the official residence and office of the First Lord of the Treasury (invariably held since 1905 by the Prime Minister). The article for 11 Downing Street says that it is the official residence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer (who traditionally also has the title of Second Lord of the Treasury). The article for 12 Downing Street says that it is official residence of the Government Chief Whip. The article for the Chief Whip says the Chief Whip of the governing party in the House of Commons is usually also appointed as Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury.

It appears to me that that the residences 10 through 12 Downing street were originally allocated for use of Treasury officials. So, I think this article needs some explanation of how number 12 somehow got transferred to the Chief Whip.
