HC Deb 24 March 1930 vol 237 c65W
Captain CROOKSHANK

asked the First Commissioner of Works if his attention has been called to the dangerous position of the county court building in Gains-borough and to recent motor accidents which have occurred there; and, if so, whether he proposes to take any action regarding the building and offices which are under the care of his Department, with a view to mitigating the dangers involved?

Mr. LANSBURY

Certain proposals were submitted by the Urban District Council of Gainsborough to my Department in 1924, but were apparently abandoned as the council were not prepared to meet the cost of the alterations to the building. I am quite prepared to have the matter further considered if any new facts have arisen.
