§ 30. Mr. BURNETTasked the First Commissioner of Works whether, with a, view to abolishing the untidy area of rough stones and cinders between the pavilion and the open-air theatre in the old Botanical Gardens, Regent's Park, he will, in view of the shortage of departmental funds at his disposal for the pur- 2293 invite nursery and horticultural firms to provide turf and plants and the Marylebone and St. Pancras municipalities to provide the labour to convert this area into a tidy lawn?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GOREI am obliged to my hon. Friend for his further suggestions, but I think it preferable that the work should be done in the normal way by my Department. I hope to make a beginning next financial year.
