HC Deb 06 December 1926 vol 200 c1684W
Captain A. EVANS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, if he will cause an underground subway from either side of Whitehall facing the Cenotaph to be constructed in order that persons laying wreaths and visiting the Cenotaph can do so free from the disturbance of the traffic proceding up and down this thorough-fare?

Captain HACKING

My right hon. Friend is not of opinion that the need for a subway is such as to warrant the considerable expenditure which would be required for its construction at this spot.
