HC Deb 02 March 1920 vol 126 cc283-4W
Mr. SITCH

asked the First Commissioner of Works if he is aware of the intention of the appropriate authority to resume consideration of the proposal to erect a new structure in place of the present Lambeth Bridge; whether his Department has any right to be heard in the matter; and, if so, will such right be exercised with the view to ensuring that the approved design for the new bridge carrying out of the project will be provided?

Lieut.-Colonel AMERY

I am aware of the circumstances stated in the first part of the question. As regards the second part there should be no difficulty in providing shipping facilities for any war orphans whose best interests would be served by starting them in life overseas.
