HC Deb 03 March 1947 vol 434 cc12-3
23. Mr. Benn Levy

asked the Minister of Works whether he is considering the establishment of new Government offices on the South bank of the river in the region of County Hall.

Mr. Key

Yes, Sir. Proposals are under consideration in consultation with the London County Council as the planning authority. I understand that the Council will issue a general statement on the subject shortly.

Mr. Levy

Will my right hon. Friend make arrangements to put these plans and proposals into the Library, so that we can consider them before a final decision is reached?

Mr. Key

Yes, Sir, I will consider that.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

Will not Government offices get their timber fast enough?

Mr. Key

We shall try to see that they get the same consideration as other similar institutions.
