HC Deb 09 April 1963 vol 675 c133W
91. Mr. Dudley Smith

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works if he will ensure that in new county and magisterial courts, constructed under the auspices of his Department, there is proper provision for the Press.

Mr. Sharples

So far as I can discover the accommodation provided for the Press at new county courts is generally accepted as adequate. An improvement is being made to facilitate writing in the Press accommodation in the new court at Brentford. Accommodation in magistrates' courts is a matter for my right hon. Friend the Home Secretary.
