HC Deb 26 October 1926 vol 199 c706W
Captain BOURNE

asked the Under-Secretary to the Home Department, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, whether it is proposed to acquire or lease the premises known as No. 41, St. Giles, Oxford, on behalf of the Post Office; and, if so, can he state the terms on which the premises are being acquired by His Majesty's Office of Works?

Captain HACKING

The premises known as No. 35, St. Giles, Oxford, are being taken for Post Office purposes, and part of the premises known as No. 41, St. Giles, for Inland Revenue purposes. It is contrary to the practice of the Department to disclose the terms of Government hirings.
