HC Deb 03 March 1952 vol 497 cc16-7
6. Major Guy Lloyd

asked the Minister of Transport the aggregate sum of money represented by past and current licences issued by his Department for building, reconstructing, repairing or decorating accommodation for the office staff of the British Transport Commission and its various executives.

Mr. Maclay

So far as it can be separately assessed, expenditure on building and reconstruction of offices mainly of an administrative nature by the Commission and its Executives, has been authorised to the amount of £697,871. This figure includes expenditure on offices of the Executives throughout the country. The figures include repairs and decoration incidental to the building or reconstruction, but other repairs and decoration by these undertakings do not require authorisation or licensing.
