HC Deb 05 March 1888 vol 323 c171
MR. HOBHOUSE (Somerset, E.)

asked the First Commissioner of Works, If be proposes to take any steps this Session for establishing electric communication between the Library and the House, so as to inform Members occupied in the Library of the progress of debate, and the names of speakers?

THE FIRST COMMISSIONER (Mr. PLUNKET) (Dublin University)

The question of the establishment of electrical communication between the House and the Library and other parts of the building has been considered; but there has not been, up to the present time, sufficient unanimity of feeling among hon. Members in favour of the proposal to justify me in going on with it.
