§ SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTEsaid, he wished to ask the First Commissioner of works, Whether it would not be possible to give the public greater facilities for visiting the Chapter House at Westminster than they at present enjoy?
MR. COWPERsaid, in reply, that the Chapter House had been shut up since the removal of the Records, but if any one wished to see it he could obtain permission to do so upon application to the Office of Works.
§ SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTEsaid, he wished to know whether it would not be possible to give further facilities?
MR. COWPERsaid, he had not considered the point very much. Some expense would certainly be entailed, and he doubted whether the interest of the public was so great as to warrant the outlay that would be requisite.
