§ 6. Mr. Gowerasked the Minister of Works what special arrangements in connection with Coronation celebrations his Department have made within the Principality of Wales; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. EcclesI am arranging to decorate a few prominent Government buildings which are on the route which Her Majesty will follow during her State visit to Wales. My Department will also make the necessary arrangements for the visit to Caernarvon Castle.
§ Mr. GowerWhile thanking my right hon. Friend for what he has said about the Royal visit to Wales, may I ask him if he will also do something to assist the celebration of the Coronation in the Principality on the actual day of the Coronation, and particularly at the greater centres of population such as Cardiff and Caernarvon?
§ Mr. EcclesNo, Sir, I am afraid we have not enough money to spend on decorations otherwise than on the route along which Her Majesty will go.
