§ 95. Lieut. - Colonel HOWARD - BURYasked the First Commissioner of Works whether, owing to the grave state of neglect of certain statues in London, owing to divided authority and responsibility for them, he will consider the desirability of the Office of Works taking over charge of all the statues and monuments in London and bringing them under one authority?
§ The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Sir John Baird)I regret that I do not see my way to extend the financial responsibilities of my Department in this direction.
§ Lieut. - Colonel HOWARD - BURYWould it not be far more satisfactory if one authority were responsible in this House for all public monuments in London?
