HC Deb 14 June 1920 vol 130 cc910-1W
Lieut.-Colonel HURST

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether he is aware that his office is still in possession of the lecture room of the Princess Christian College, Manchester; whether he will take steps to utilise in its stead one of the surplus huts under the control of the Disposal Board; and what reparation he proposes to offer for the great loss and injury sustained by the College in consequence of the action of his office?

Sir A. MOND

My Department is already in communication with the Ministry of Pensions as to the possibility of restoring the lecture room to the College, and I hope that the matter will be settled at an early date. It is open to the College authorities to submit for consideration a claim in respect of any loss or damage which may have been sustained through the requisition of the lecture room.
