§ Dr. SALTERasked the First Commissioner of Works whether the catering contracts for the Tilt Yard, Hampton Court, and for Bushey Park, respectively, are let annually or for a period or are subject to annual renewal; whether a licence to sell intoxicating drink has ever been applied for or granted in respect of the refreshment kiosk in Bushey Park; and whether he will give an assurance that no application for permission to apply for such licence will be granted by him, in view of the fact that Bushey Park is used almost exclusively by children?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GOREThese contracts are usually let for periods of three years. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative, and, as to the third part, I have no intention at present of approving any application for a licence at this particular tea house.
