Palace Chambers, Bridge Street

HC Deb 01 April 1969 vol 781 cc69-70W

Mr. Ryan

asked the Minister of Public Building and Works what restrictions are placed upon the use by the National Front of his Department's premises at Palace Chambers, Bridge Street.

Mr. Loughlin

The League of Empire Loyalists occupies one room, which it held on lease when my Department took the premises over, subject to the condition that it is not to be used otherwise than as offices, stores or showrooms for the purpose of carrying out the business of a political organisation. There are also prohibitions, common to other tenants on the Bridge Street site, against using the premises for any noisy or offensive activities or bringing into the building any material likely to increase the normal fire risk.
