§ 9. Viscount CURZONasked the hon. and gallant Member for the Pollok Division, of Glasgow, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, whether any steps can be taken to restore the flower beds in Hyde Park for the benefit of the public before the summer; and, If so, whether, in the interests of economy, tenders can be invited from the large horticultural firms for all or part of the work?
§ Sir J. GILMOURThe First Commissioner is giving careful consideration to this suggestion, but I fear that it may be too late to take any action during the present summer.
