§ 90. Sir G. Foxasked the Minister of Works whether he is aware that the tarpaulin coverings over the passage way in Westminster Ball are inadequate for safety; that steel hooks falling from the roof cut through them and may cause a fatal accident; and if he will consider providing a more permanent passage way, which will give protection and greater warmth, from the Members' cloak room to St. Stephen's Hall next winter.
§ Mr. KeyYes, Sir. The passage way is being roofed in and meanwhile work immediately overhead has been stopped.
