§ LORD HUGH CECIL (Greenwich)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has received a resolution from the Green wich Board of Guardians, asking that they be allowed to revise their outstanding loans, and to borrow the money for the Grove Park Workhouse and the cottage homes at Sidcup, on the principle of repaying in sixty years instead of thirty years; and, if so, whether he will accede to the request.
§ MR. GRANT LAWSONThe Guardians have made an application to me on this subject during the present week. I am giving it my consideration, and hope to arrive at a decision with regard to it in the course of a few days.
