§ MR. T. L. CORBETTOn behalf of the hon. Member for Mid. Armagh, I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works when the dining-room used by members of the Press will be ready for their occupation; and what has been the cause of the delay in its preparation.
§ MR. J. MACVEAGHIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that this Question 1424 is repudiated by the Press Gallery Committee, and that the members of the Gallery have no complaint to make of the present temporary arrangement?
§ MR. HARCOURTYes, I am aware of the fact stated in the supplementary Question. The dining-room is now ready for occupation. During the short delay other accommodation was provided for the Press from whom I have received many expressions of gratitude for the improvements recently effected.
§ MR. T. L. CORBETTMay I remark that there is no such insinuation in the Question as suggested by the hon. Member?
