HC Deb 28 June 1905 vol 148 c359
MR. HARMSWORTH (Caithness-shire)

To ask the hon. Member for Chorley, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, whether it is proposed to extend the regulation, closing Hyde Park to motor vehicles between four and seven p.m. to the other Royal Parks.

(Answered by Lord Balcarres.) The reply is in the negative, as there is no proposal before the First Commissioner to extend the regulation.

MR. WEIR (Ross and Cromarty)

To ask the hon. Member for Chorley, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, whether, instead of limiting to the hours between four p.m. and seven p.m. as the time during which motor cars are excluded from Hyde Park, he will consider the advisability of excluding them entirely from all public parks under the control of the First Commissioner of Works.

(Answered by Lord Balcarres.) The First Commissioner is not prepared to adopt the suggestion of the hon. Member.
