HC Deb 05 June 1935 vol 302 c1857
38. Mr. RUTHERFORD

asked the First Commissioner of Works what is the position concerning the rebuilding of the Edmonton County Court?

The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS(Mr. Ormsby-Gore)

Plans for the erection of a new county court and offices at Edmonton are now in course of preparation, and it is hoped that a start will be made on building operations towards the end of the current financial year.

Mr. RUTHERFORD

Will ate right hon. Gentleman expedite this matter in view of the fact that the buildings are already inadequate and that the Wood Green County Court work has been transferred to Edmonton?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

The difficulty is that we have to use some of the existing site which means rather elaborate drawings, and these are now being done. There will be no avoidable delay in putting the work in hand.
