MINISTRY OF WORKS AND BUILDINGS. (Hansard, 26 February 1941)

HC Deb 26 February 1941 vol 369 c537W 537W

§ Mr. A. Edwards
asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Works and Buildings when he expects to present a report on the work of his Department; and whether he is now able clearly to define its duties?

§ Mr. Hicks
In answer to the first part of the Question, I would refer my hon. Friend to the statement made by the Lord Privy Seal on 13th February, of which I am sending him a copy. With regard to the second part of the Question, I hope that hon. Members will be prepared to wait until the promised Debate for a definition of the duties of the Ministry of Works and Buildings.
