§ Mr. HART-DAVIESasked whether it is proposed that the Thames Conservancy Board shall hold their meetings in Beading instead of London; and whether the sanction of the Board of Trade will be given to this arrangement?
Mr. TENNANTI understand that a proposal to this effect has been under consideration by the Thames Conservators, but the Board of Trade have not been informed of their decision. The place of meeting is a matter entirely within the discretion of the conservators. The sanction of the Board of Trade is not required.
