§ 81. Major Sir ARCHIBALD SINCLAIRasked the First Commissioner of Works whether he has yet received the Report of the Scottish Fine Arts Commission on the plans for the new buildings on the Calton site in Edinburgh; and whether he will state the terms of reference to the Commission?
§ Mr. LANSBURYThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative; the Royal Fine Art Commission for Scotland has not been limited to any precise terms of reference in this matter, but has been asked to advise and report upon the plans, etc., which have been submitted to it.
§ Sir FREDERICK THOMSONWill the right hon. Gentleman undertake that no final decision shall be come to in regard to these plans until the City Council of Edinburgh has been fully consulted?
§ Mr. LANSBURYThat matter has been settled between the late Government and the city council.
§ Sir. A. SINCLAIRWill the Report of the Fine Arts Commission be published?
§ Mr. LANSBURYI expect that it will be.
