§ MR. OWEN PHILLIPSI beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the damage to the King's House at Jamaica, caused by the earthquake in January, 1907, has yet been repaired; and, if not, will he ascertain when the King's House will be again fit for habitation by the Governor of the Colony.
§ COLONEL SEELYThe money for rebuilding King's House in St. Andrew has been voted by the Legislative Council, 1225 and the Vote has been approved by the Secretary of State. The Governor's recent visit to this country was chiefly concerned with the arrangements for this and other public building work, and I understand that the question of the acceptance of a tender for the restoration of King's House is now under the Governor's consideration. The Governor will be asked when he anticipates being able to re-occupy the house.
