SIR JOHN IENG (Dundee)To ask the hon. Member for Chorley, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, if he is aware of the inconvenience caused to frequenters of St. James' Park by the removal of the walk round the west end of the ornamental water; and, if so, whether he will consider the desirability of replacing it by a walk or foot-bridge contiguous to the new wall.
(Answered by Lord Balcarres.) When the terraces are opened to the public it is hoped that any inconvenience now caused will be removed. The First Commissioner regrets that he is unable to make a walk or foot-bridge at the foot of the new wall, as either would be very unsightly.
