§ 51. Sir CHARLES OMANasked the First Commissioner of Works whether, in consideration of the expenses that will be involved in the transference of the contents of the Imperial War Museum to a new site south of the Thames, where a large building would have to be internally reconstructed, he will agree to the postponement of the transference?
§ Captain AUSTIN HUDSON (Lord of the Treasury)I have been asked to reply. The Bethlem Hospital scheme has been slowed down with a view to reducing expenditure this year, and the future programme of work will be reviewed in the Autumn when the 1933 Estimates come up for consideration.
