1. Sir L. Plummer

asked the Minister of Works what plans he has for the building of the British Embassy in Brasilia.

Lord John Hope

The Government of Brazil are presenting a site to Her Majesty's Government for the Embassy Residence and the Chancery Offices, and I am buying, a number of sites in Brasilia for residential accommodation for other staff. My Permanent Secretary and Chief Architect recently visited Brasilia and I am now considering how we should proceed.
