HC Deb 02 May 1928 vol 216 cc1706-7
20. Mr. BUCHANAN

asked the Minister of Labour if the building of the new Exchange in Glasgow has yet been started; and, if not, when it is proposed to start it?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Lieut.-Colonel Sir Vivian Henderson)

No, Sir, the building to be erected will house other Government staff besides that of the Employment Exchange, and some necessary arrangements have still to be made with the Departments concerned before final plans can be approved. It is hoped to commence building towards the end of the year.

Mr. BUCHANAN

What Government Department is it proposed to house there, other than the Ministry of Labour?

Sir V. HENDERSON

Probably the Inland Revenue Tax office.
