HC Deb 14 August 1919 vol 119 c1641W
Earl WINTERTON

asked the Prime Minister if, in view of the fact that a number of London squares are still closed to the public during August, he will introduce legislation making it obligatory upon all owners of squares to open their squares for the use and enjoyment of children during the month of August?

Major ASTOR

The open spaces in question are private property. It must be clear to the hon. and gallant Member that in any case it would be impracticable to secure legislation on this subject before the Recess.
