Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Works if his attention has been called to the removal of iron railings, gate and posts, the property of Mr. H. Alwen, of Ash Tree Cottage, Cudham, Kent, for which he was offered 1s. 10d.; that there is now a recommendation from his Department at 44 Lowndes Square for the sum of£1 5s. to be paid; and, in view of the fact that replacement will cost about £30, if he will review the whole matter.

Mr. Tomlinson

Yes, Sir. I have seen the lengthy correspondence with the hon. Member on this matter, and the facts are as stated by him in the first two parts of the Question, But, for the reasons given in my reply to the hon. Member for Leyton, West (Mr. Sorensen) on 13th November last, the answer to the last part of the Question is in the negative.
