HC Deb 13 May 1909 vol 4 c2145W
Mr. JOHN WARD

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether he has received from the Conservators of Wimbledon Common a proposal for new bye-laws to regulate the same; and, if so, will he, before giving his sanction, insist upon proper precautions being adopted to protect the public from injury by golf balls, and upon the Conservators providing proper permanent refreshment accommodation for the public who use this great open space?

Mr. HARCOURT

The reply to the first paragraph is in the affirmative. The whole question is now under discussion between the Conservators and the local authority I will certainly impress the views of the hon. Member upon them.
