39. Major Legge-Bourke

asked the Minister of Works what arrangements are being made for band performances in the Royal Parks during the coming summer.

Mr. Molson

At weekends during the summer there will be regular band performances as in past years. From Mondays to Fridays I am making two changes in the arrangements. First, the season will start a little later, on 22nd June. Secondly, there will be lunchtime and early evening performances in the Green Park or in St. James's Park instead of the afternoon and evening performances in Hyde Park. I hope this change of place will enable more people to listen to these performances. Details will be given to the Press.
