HC Deb 26 July 1955 vol 544 c110W
79. Mr. G. R. Strauss

asked the Minister of Works whether he will seek the opinion of the Royal Fine Art Commission about the desirability of placing Rodin's "Burghers of Calais" in single file, as desired by the sculptor, instead of in a group, when re-erecting this statue in Victoria Embankment Gardens.

Mr. Birch

I do not think that this course is necessary, for the reasons given in my reply to the noble Lord the Member for Hertford (Lord Balniel) on Tuesday last.
