HC Deb 03 October 1944 vol 403 c780W
Mr. J. Griffiths

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Works how many men are employed on work at the Odeon cinema, Kensington: and why this work is regarded as urgent.

Mr. Hicks

This cinema was damaged by a flying bomb on 28th July, and licences for the repair of this damage were issued early in September. Seven building trade operatives are employed in carrying out temporary repairs which will be completed by 9th October. They have, it is understood, been assisted by some of the theatre staff and cleaners.
