MR. STANLEY WILSON (Yorkshire, E.R., Holderness)To ask the First Commissioner of Works, what firm is 1330 being employed to do the fireproofing of the National Gallery extension; and whether the design and estimate were submitted to competition.
(Answered by Mr. Harcourt.) In the National Gallery extension there will not be any special contract for fire-proofing. Reinforced concrete construction for both roofs and floors will be employed, and the work will form part of the ordinary building contract.
