HC Deb 15 August 1901 vol 99 c922
LORD BALCARRES (Lancashire, Chorley)

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works if it has been proposed to remove the screen below the organ in Westminster Abbey in view of the coronation ceremony.

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

I understand that at the Coronation Committee a question was asked as to whether it was feasible to remove the screen temporarily, but no proposal was made, and the question was not discussed.
