HC Deb 01 December 1947 vol 445 c1W
9. Sir G. Fox

asked the Minister of Works whether he will give an assurance that sufficient timber will be forthcoming for the Olympic Regatta at Henley in August, 1948, to enable the necessary Press stands to be erected and for the special layout of the course to Olympic standards to be undertaken.

Mr. Key

I have no information as to the amount of timber needed for the Press stands or for the layout of the course, but I hope it will be possible to meet reasonable requirements.
