HC Deb 17 July 1950 vol 477 c1849
46. Mr. Black

asked the Lord President of the Council whether any decision has yet been reached regarding the opening of the Festival of Britain exhibition and fun fair on Sundays.

The Lord President of the Council (Mr. Herbert Morrison)

Consultation with the Churches through the Festival of Britain Advisory Council of Christian Churches is still in progress. The answer must, therefore, be "No, Sir."

47. Mr. Deedes

asked the Lord President of the Council whether tenders are to be invited for catering at the Festival of Britain Exhibition; and whether he will now make a further statement on the arrangements to be made.

Mr. H. Morrison

I assume that the hon. Member is referring to catering at the South Bank Exhibition. The position is that tenders have been invited and have been received. They are at present under consideration.

Sir H. Williams

Has the Kitchen Committee tendered?
