§ MR. STANLEY LEIGHTONasked the First Commissioner of Works, Whether he proposes to make any alterations in Westminster Hall; and, if so, whether he will allow a plan of them to be exhibited in the Library for a reasonable time before the work is carried out?
§ MR. SHAW LEFEVRESir, the architect, Mr. Pearson, has not yet completed his plans or his report upon the restoration of the west front of Westminster Hall. But I hope to have them before the end of this month. I have already promised that nothing shall be done until the House has had an opportunity of considering the proposals.
