HC Deb 17 March 1919 vol 113 c1726
60. Captain FITZROY

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether, in view of the fact that Armament Buildings, when completed, were intended for occupation by the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, he will ensure that the Board are enabled to occupy this building at an early date or that another building is made available for the Board without delay?

Sir A. MOND

This question has been fully considered, and I regret that there is no possibility of Armament Buildings being available for accommodating the Board of Agriculture and' Fisheries at an early date. I can assure the hon. and gallant Member that the importance of concentrating the whole Department in one building is fully appreciated, but unfortunately there is no suitable accommodation available at the present time in Westminster.

Major E. WOOD

Is the right hon. Gentleman taking steps to find accommodation for the various other Departments which need it?

Sir A. MOND

There is no other accommodation to be found.
