§ Sir W. BULLasked the First Commissioner of Works if he will consider the desirability of moving for a Return or publishing a list of all the pictures, engravings, and photographs in the House of Commons, together with a list of all the gifts, bequests, and various objects of interest and value now on view in the Palace of Westminster; and can he number such pictures and articles so that the position of the same may be identified in the catalogue?
§ Sir A. MONDA card index catalogue of the pictures and photographs in the House of Commons is kept in the library, and a record is also kept by Mr. Wilson, the Clerk of Works. To furnish such a Return as the hon. Member suggests would involve a considerable outlay which I should not feel justified in incurring at the present time.
