HC Deb 10 August 1911 vol 29 cc1342-3
Mr. HARRY LAWSON

asked the hon. Member for Southampton as representing the First Commissioner of Works, whether the Tower of London is open to the public for certain hours on Sunday afternoons; if not, why the Tower of London has been excluded from the operation of the Resolution of this House under which national collections were opened to the public under certain conditions on Sundays; whether he is aware that there are a vast number of people who have been unable to visit it on account of this restriction, especially those who dwell in East London; and if he will inquire into the possibility of giving such opportunity during certain hours?

TREASURER of the HOUSEHOLD (Mr. Dudley Ward)

The First Commissioner will be glad to make the inquiries suggested by the hon. Member.
