HC Deb 24 October 1950 vol 478 c2667
Mr. Speaker

I have a few announcements to make to the House. This morning I have signed 56 letters to those who have given gifts to our new House of Commons. These letters are illuminated and, I think, are beautiful works of art. I am having a copy put in the Library for hon. Members to see, but I am afraid it can only be there this afternoon and this evening because, of course, we want to despatch them. They will be in the Library and I trust that they will not be spoilt in any way whatsoever.
