HC Deb 30 April 1867 vol 186 cc1826-7

SUPPLY—considered in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

£402,000, Advances for New Courts of Justice and Offices.

MR. HUNT

said, he rose to propose a Vote of £402,000 for advances for the purchase of the site and for other purposes in connection with the new Courts of Justice.

MR. SELWYN

inquired what would be the total cost of the site, and how far the original Estimate had been exceeded?

MR. HUNT

could not state what the cost of the site would be, as the question of enlarging the site was still under the consideration of the Commission. The House would not be precluded from considering that matter by the adoption of the present Vote.

Vote agreed to.

House resumed.

Resolution to be reported To-morrow.

Committee to sit again To-morrow.
