HC Deb 24 April 1967 vol 745 cc1134-5
24. Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works whether he will clean up the outside of the Old Treasury building in Whitehall.

Mr. Prentice

I hope to announce shortly what further buildings will be cleaned when work on the Whitehall frontages of the Horse Guards and Dover House is completed.

Mr. Lewis

As the inside of this building has been refurbished, although it has not had much effect upon the political inhabitants, should not the façade be cleaned up?

Mr. Prentice

I have some sympathy with that suggestion. I will certainly consider whether the building should be included in the programme I hope to announce shortly.
