HC Deb 14 November 1918 vol 110 cc2870-1
54. Sir H. CRAIK

asked whether, if it is decided to have a memorial in Hyde Park to those who have fallen in the War, this will be carried out solely at the public expense and by public authority, without any private action or private expenditure being permitted in connection therewith?

Sir A. MOND

No proposal for a permanent memorial in Hyde Park to those who have fallen in the War has yet been submitted to me. Any such scheme could only be carried out at the public expense and with the approval of Parliament subject to the gracious permission of His Majesty the King, the Ranger of the Royal Parts.
