HC Deb 10 June 1976 vol 912 cc738-9W
Mr. Brotherton

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what was the cost to public funds of the fountain in New Palace Yard.

Mr. Armstrong

The fountain was provided as an integral part of the landscaping of New Palace Yard, and there was no separate sub-contract. It is not possible to abstract the cost of the fountain from the total cost of that project except at disproportinate cost. I have written to the hon. Member.
