HC Deb 04 November 1937 vol 328 cc1151-2W
Mr. Liddall

asked the First Commissioner of Works why the Public Works Department have taken the first floor of a building in course of construction in the city of Lincoln at an annual rental of £2,000 per annum on a 99 years lease when similar accommodation could have been obtained in the city at an annual rental of between £400 and £500?

Sir P. Sassoon

I have no knowledge of the lease to which my hon. Friend refers.
