HC Deb 16 June 1915 vol 72 cc666-7
24. Mr. KING

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether it is intended to divest of its present tarpaulin covering the group of statuary, by Mr. Rodin, in the Victoria Tower Gardens; and, if so, when?

The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Mr. Harcourt)

I am at the present moment in communication with the Committee of the National Art Collections Fund, the donors of the group, as to this question.

Mr. KING

Does that point to an early official opening of the group?

Mr. HARCOURT

I think it points to an early conclusion of the communications I am having.
