§ Mr. SEDDONasked the First Commissioner of Works whether he can make arrangements whereby the Press Gallery can perform their duties under proper conditions by extending the accommodation either to the Members' Gallery or the Ladies' Gallery?
§ Sir A. MONDI have not received any request from the Press Gallery Committee for the extension of the accommodation in question, and I doubt whether such extension is practicable. I have, however, received a request from the Committee for more Writing Room accommodation, and I will endeavour to meet their wishes in this respect when the next re-arrangement of accommodation in the House takes place.
