§ Lieut.-Colonel HOWARD-BURYasked the First Commissioner of Works whether his attention has be-en drawn to the uncompleted and damaged turrets outside the Palace of Westminster; and whether, in view of the great number of visitors that are expected this year from the Dominions, he will have them completed?
§ Mr. JOWETTThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, and I am considering the whole question of the repair of the stonework of the Houses of Parliament, which presents many difficulties. In the meantime I am merely removing detached and dangerous portions of the masonry.
