HC Deb 18 November 1958 vol 595 c113W
Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Works if he has yet decided whether he will thin the inner row of trees in Birdcage Walk during the winter.

Mr. Molson

Yes. My Advisory Committee on Forestry has recommended that alternate trees in this row should be removed in order to give the remaining trees room for development. The roadside row of trees was similarly treated two years ago and their subsequent development has been most encouraging. therefore propose to act on the Committee's advice and carry out the work during the coming winter.
