HC Deb 20 February 1902 vol 103 cc590-1
MR. HARWOOD

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works if he can state when the Members of this House are likely to enter upon the benefits of the promised added accommodation.

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

I would refer the hon. Gentleman to a ful answer I gave on the 27th of January on this subject, upon a question by the hon. Member for North Lambeth.† I can only say that I am anxious to carry out more of the recommendations of the Select Committee of last session, directly funds are available. I would, however, remind the House that the proposed new Rule now under consideration would, if passed, have an important influence upon the question.
