§ 111. Mr. Spearmanasked the Minister of Works why the gates in the Victoria Tower Gardens were closed at 9.35 p.m. on Sunday, nth May; and if he will consider leaving these gardens open to the public and thereby relieve the park-keeper of having to stay late.
§ Mr. KeyThe gates of the Victoria Tower Gardens are closed at this time of year at 10 p.m. but it is the practice to close one half of the gates before this hour as a warning to the public that the gardens are about to be closed. I do not think it would be desirable to leave the gardens open all night.
