§ 62. Viscount CURZONasked the First Commissioner of Works whether his attention has been drawn to the rapidly deteriorating surface of Birdcage Walk and the Mall; and whether any steps will be taken to institute the necessary repairs at an early date in order to avoid a greater expenditure in the future?
§ The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Sir Alfred Mond)Birdcage Walk will be repaired during the coming financial year, if funds are voted by Parliament for the purpose. The surface of the Mall will be repaired, where actually necessary, this year, but the entire relaying of the wood pavement will probably be postponed for a period.
