HC Deb 15 February 1900 vol 79 cc84-5
MR. MOON

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether an indicator of the debates can be placed in the tea room.

MR. CARVELL WILLIAMS () Nottinghamshire, Mansfield

I beg at the same time to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether, as the news room is frequented throughout the sittings of the House, he will place an indicator of the debates there in preference to the tea room.

THE FIRST COMMISSIONER OF WORKS (Mr. AKERS DOUGLAS,) Kent, St. Augustine's

In answer to my hon. friend and to the question of the hon. Member for the Mansfield Division, I beg to say that I will give their suggestions my favourable consideration. I am inclined to think that of the two proposals that which suggests that an indicator should be placed in the newspaper room is the best.
