§ Mr. CARLYON BELLAIRSasked the Prime Minister, in view of the official intimation of interest and good wishes sent through the Secretary of State for the Colonies in the Trafalgar anniversary demonstration at Toronto, will the Government in future show their interest in the London celebration in Trafalgar-square?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI believe that the message transmitted through my Noble Friend, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, was in reply to a communication to the King. I am not aware of any steps that could fittingly be taken by His Majesty's Government to carry out the suggestion of the hon. Member. As he is no doubt aware full facilities for the decoration of the Nelson column are accorded by my right hon. Friend the First Commissioner of Works.
§ Mr. BELLAIRSDoes the right hon. Gentleman accept the suggestion often made in this House to fly the flag over public buildings on Trafalgar Day?
