§ MR. T. LOUGH (Islington, W.)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, considering the urgency of completing South Kensington Museum, the Government is willing to introduce a Bill similar to the Military Works (Loan) Bill, under which the money for doing so might be borrowed and repaid over a period of thirty years?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERI am afraid that in view of the great cost of the erection of public offices in London, which have recently been sanctioned, the Government cannot undertake to proceed with the extension or completion of the buildings at South Kensington.
