§ SIR EDWARD WATKIN (Hythe)asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether, in respect to the Folkestone Jubilee Hospital, he will decide, without delay, either not to sell the site of the disused battery on the "Bayle" at Folkestone for any purposes whatever, or to sell it for the purposes of the much-needed hospital at a price to be stated, or to put it up to auction; and, whether he is aware that the provision of this Jubilee Hospital has been delayed, for want of a site, for a year and a quarter?
§ SIR HERBERT MAXWELL (A LORD Of the TREASURY) (Wigton)(who replied) said: It is not yet decided whether the site of the battery on the 585 Bayle shall be sold or not; but if it is, it will be sold by public auction.
