HC Deb 26 March 1929 vol 226 c2279W
Mr. LOUIS SMITH

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, as representing the First Commissioner of Works, if he will consider the desirability of placing on sale a floor plan of the House of Commons as a guidance to new Members, who at present have no means of acquainting themselves with the general lay-out of the building?

Sir V. HENDERSON

Guide books containing a plan of the Houses of Parliament are already on sale at the stall in the King's Robing Room. The First Commissioner of Works is in consultation with Mr. Speaker and the Lord Great Chamberlain as to possible additional facilities for the sale of such literature, and my hon. Friend's suggestion will doubtless be considered.
