HC Deb 07 September 1909 vol 10 c1085
Mr. MYER

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether he will endeavour to arrange that the museum belonging to the Royal United Service Institution, at present housed in the banqueting hall of the Palace of Whitehall, and which is now closed to the public except on payment of a fee of sixpence, may be opened to the public upon some days in the week free of any charge?

The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Mr. L. Harcourt)

This is not a matter in which I have any official authority, but I will take care that the hon. Member's wishes are conveyed to the council of the institution.

Mr. MYER

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that there are a number of private collections in London which are open to the public on certain days?

Mr. HARCOURT

I was not aware that that was the case, but I am glad to hear it.
