§ Following is the answer:
§ graphy of the Palace of Westminster, which was presented by a private individual and not by any commercial undertaking. My right hon. Friend, the First Commissioner of Works, is not aware that any of the heraldic details are incorrect and, inasmuch as Mr. E. E. Dorling, who is recognised as the leading heraldic authority, advised the artist, he would be surprised to learn that mistakes exist. Nevertheless, if my hon. Friend will let him know of any details he conceives to be incorrect, he will be happy to cause the matter to be further investigated.
