§ Miss WILKINSONasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, why the picture of the holding down of the Speaker in his chair has been removed from its place; whether it has been relegated to a Committee Room; and whether, in view of the empty spaces still remaining on the walls of St. Stephen's Hall, room can be found for the new pictures without removing this one?
§ Captain HACKING (for The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS)I would refer the hon. Member to a reply which I gave to a question on the 7th March last, when the House was informed of the intention to remove the pictures from St. Stephen's Hall. The whole of the eight panels are now occupied by the new paintings.
