HC Deb 22 February 1906 vol 152 cc511-2
MR. ALEXANDER CROSS

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether he is aware of the inconvenience to Members of this House due to the Sale Office for Bills being situated in a remote part of Westminster Hall; and whether he will consider, as a means to remedy this inconvenience, the transfer of the Sale Department to the Vote Office in the lobby.

MR. HARCOURT

The Vote Office is already too small for the business carried on in it. But I will consult the authorities of the House as to whether any more convenient arrangement can be made for the Sale Department.

MR. ALEXANDER CROSS

Is the right hon. Gentleman prepared to appoint a Committee to consider the whole subject of the arrangements of the House.

MR. HARCOURT

The arrangements, rest with the authorities, whom I will consult in the matter.
