§ SIR HARRY VERNEYasked the First Commissioner of Works, Whether the house, premises, and land in Hyde Park, occupied by the late Deputy Ranger, are to be thrown open to the Park and appropriated to the public?
§ MR. SHAW LEFEVREI communicated through the Press, a few days ago, that His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge had obtained the permission of the Queen to throw open for the use of the public the field and paddock attached to the Ranger's Lodge in Hyde Park. As the matter is entirely within the right of His Royal Highness, reserved by the Act of Parliament which vests the Park in the Commissioner of Works, I am sure the House will appreciate this act of liberality and consideration for the interest of the public.
