§ MR. CAVENDISH BENTINCKasked the First Commissioner of Works, Whether it is intended that the elevation of the New Courts of Justice shall be erected in conformity with the designs now exhibited in the Library?
§ MR. AYRTONsaid, he hoped his hon. Friend would put the question to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, as this business was not in the least in his hands.
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERsaid, the Treasury had the arrangement of the matter under an Act of Parliament. They had not yet the elevations, and the object of placing the designs in the Library was to give the House time to express its opinion concerning them.
§ MR. CAVENDISH BENTINCKasked whether any opportunity would be given to the House to express an opinion? Had a Bill on the subject been prepared?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERsaid, there was no Bill; but hon. Gentlemen would doubtless find an opportunity of eliciting the opinion of the House.
