HC Deb 14 April 1930 vol 237 c2649W
Sir K. WOOD

asked the Minister of Transport the present position as to the widening of Eltham High Street, S.E., including the acquisition of Barclay's bank premises; and the amount of the financial assistance that can be given towards the purchase of the land and the cost of the property and works?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

I am advised that negotiations are still proceeding for the acquisition of the necessary properties, including the bank premises; but until I know what is to be the cost of acquiring the properties, I cannot state what amount of financial assistance will be given to the scheme.
