HC Deb 03 May 1960 vol 622 c64W
58. Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Works whether he will ensure that the design for the British Embassy at Brasilia is in keeping with the style of modern architecture in the new Brazilian capital.

Lord John Hope

I fully appreciate the architectural significance of Brasilia and I hope that the new Embassy will be a notable contribution to it. My Permanent Secretary and Chief Architect are visiting Brasilia this week to consider our future plans.
