HC Deb 23 April 1907 vol 172 c1570
MR. LANE-FOX

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works what Government Departments are to be accommodated in the new buildings in Whitehall; and what is to be the eventual use to which the old War Office in Pall Mall is to be put.

MR. RUNCIMAN

The Board of Education and the Local Government Board will be accommodated in the new public offices as soon as they are ready for occupation. The most westerly portion of the old War Office, Nos. 80, 81, and 82, Pall Mall, is occupied by the Barrack Construction Department. The two houses adjoining, Nos. 83 and 84, will be occupied by the Office of Woods pending the rebuilding of their offices in Whitehall Place. All other houses have been surrendered to the Office of Woods, and the eventual use of these premises is a matter for that Department.
